Use Online Dictionary to Learn Correct Pronunciation

Can you pronounce words like "connoisseur" or "entrepreneur" correctly?
Do you know how "desert" and "dessert" sound differently?

If you feel uncomfortable sometime (especially if you are new in USA and
probably coming from a non-English-speaking country) the best way to
improve your pronunciation is to visit the website of Merriam Webster
dictionary
and click on such word or any word you like and hear and
practise the correct pronunciation!

Dictionary.com also provides similar service but you need to sign up and
login each time you want to use the dictionary. Merriam Webster, on the
other hand has kept the access very simple for any user.

YourDictionary.com is a virtual directory of many dictionaries of many
types in many many languages. If you know or are just interested in many
languages, this website is a very useful one.
