How To Pronounce The Word Interesting

The adjective 'interesting' is one of the words that is very difficult to pronounce by non-native speakers. Most people like to say it with the stress on the second syllable (teres) rather than the first (in).

What you should remember is that it's pronounced like the noun "interest" /ˈɪntrəst/,  we place the stress on the first syllable -"in"- not on the "teres"

To make it more interesting, many people actually pronounce the word like this: in-tres-ting. If you notice, the 'e' in the second syllable is not really emphasized.

Listen and hear for yourself!
