Pronunciation is the way a word or language is spoken, and it can be broken down into several components. ARTICULATION (12 letters) is the physical production of speech sounds, which involves the movement of the lips, tongue, and other parts of the mouth. INFLECTION (10 letters) is the variation in pitch and volume of a person's voice when speaking. STRESS (6 letters) is the emphasis placed on certain syllables in a word. ELOCUTION (9 letters) is the skill of speaking clearly and correctly. ACCENT (6 letters) is the way a person pronounces words, which can be influenced by their native language or region. Finally, BURR (4 letters) is a type of ACCENT that is associated with Scotland.
