How to Pronounce Acetaminophen?
How to Pronounce Acetaminophen?
Dear teacher hope your good! I heard that acetaminophen is pronounced differently depending on where you're from. Some people say "uh-see-tuh-MEE-nuh-fen," while others say "uh-SET-uh-min-uh-fen." I wonder which one is correct?

You're absolutely right! The pronunciation of acetaminophen differs based on region.
- In American English, it's typically pronounced "uh-SEE-tuh-MIN-uh-fen" (əˌsiːtəˈmɪnəfən).
- In British English, it's usually pronounced "uh-SET-uh-MIN-uh-fen" (əˌsɛtəmɪˈnəʊfən), though the term paracetamol is more commonly used in the UK.
Both pronunciations are correct depending on where you are! 😊
