THE TEN HARDEST ENGLISH WORDS:史上最难发音的十个词:
1. Worcestershire
2. Specific
3. Squirrel
4. Brewery
5. Phenomenon
6. Derby
7. Regularly
8. February
9. Edited
10. Heir
And certain words which appear on the list, including brewery and edited, seem rather straightforward to an average Brit.
榜单上出现的其他的一些词,包括brewery 和edited,对一般英国人而言太简单了。
Others, including phenomenon and February are notorious tongue twisters even fornative English speakers.
其它的,包括phenomenon 和February都是臭名昭著的绕口词,甚至对英国本土人而言。
The last two words to make the top ten were Derby, which is (confusingly for foreigners) pronounced darby, and heir.
排名前十的最后两个单词是Derby,发音为darby(让外国人很困惑),还有heir。
Of course, weve all had our embarrassing slips when attempting to pronounce unfamiliar words.None more mortifying, perhaps, than John Travoltas linguistic misstep at the 2014 Oscars, where he pronounced Frozen star Idina Menzels name as: Adele Dazeem, for the entire world to see.And lets not forget Benedict Cumberbatch, the Oscar-nominated British thespian who famously recorded an entire voiceover for a 2009 BBC nature documentary pronouncing the word penguin as peng-wing.
