Prononciation des consonnes initiales

French and English consonants at the beginning of a word are pronounced pretty much the same way except for a few.

I’d like to focus on words starting with PN and PS in this lesson. They are pronounced differently in French than they are in English.

* m …. pneu …. tire

* m/f …. pneumatique …. inflatable

* f …. pneumonie …. pneumonia

* m …. pseudo, pseudonyme …. username, pen name

* m/f …. psychopathe …. psychopath

* m/f …. psychiatre …. psychiatrist

* f …. psychiatrie …. psychiatry

* m/f …. psychologue …. psychologist

* f …. psychologie …. psychology

* f …. psyché …. psyche, tall mirror

* f …. psychose …. psychosis

* f …. pseudoscience …. pseudoscience
