Q: How to Pronounce Fallacious?

The correct pronunciation of "fallacious" is fuh-LAY-shus. The "shus" ending is key, as it follows the pattern of words like "gracious." It might be worth gently letting them know, especially if they're using it in presentations. A friendly note like, "Hey, I noticed your pronunciation of 'fallacious'—I think it’s actually 'fuh-LAY-shus.' Great job on the presentation, by the way!" keeps the tone positive and constructive. 😊

Can you please help with this dear teacher. My friend confidently said fallacious like "fall-ay-see-us" in a presentation—did they get it right, or should I let them know?

Hey, Isaac!

Your friend was close but slightly off. The correct pronunciation of "fallacious" is fuh-LAY-shus. The "shus" ending is key, as it follows the pattern of words like "gracious."

It might be worth gently letting them know, especially if they're using it in presentations. A friendly note like, "Hey, I noticed your pronunciation of 'fallacious'—I think it’s actually 'fuh-LAY-shus.' Great job on the presentation, by the way!" keeps the tone positive and constructive. 😊

I hope this helps!
