Guide de prononciation
- A common error for English speakers is to pronounce the 'o' too much like the 'o' in 'dome'. In Romanian, it's a shorter, more open 'o' sound, similar to the 'o' in 'cot' or 'got'.
- Ensure the 'mn' at the end is pronounced clearly, almost like a separate syllable, rather than merging into a single 'm' sound.
