Or you can look up how to pronounce it. The IPA and often audio pronunciations aren't that hard to find, unless you speak a more obscure language
So many of the audio pronunciations are computer generated, I used to like IPA but then I stopped drinking so it doesn't really help any more.
International phonetic alphabet :3.. though trying to pronounce some of the sounds in it does make you want the other kind of IPA lol
I just wouldn't think to look up a word I assumed I was pronouncing correctly. I'm pretty good at this reading thing, and so I apply the standards, but words like epitome and ethereal are just here to fuck with us.
Tbf a call line wouldn't help you in that case either, which is the premise of this. You wouldn't call about words you assume you know
I can't imagine "ethereal" being pronounced any other way than the correct one. "Etha-real?"
