How to Avoid Pronunciation Mistakes

The stress in English is very important. If you ever want to kind of work out where the stress is, my advice is play around with the stress. One phrase that people say a lot is we achieved to finish the project. And I'm just going to add on an additional point to this as well because achieve something. That's how I pronounce it with that schwa sound at the beginning. A chive. It's not achieve. The word "achieve" comes up all the time in business English. We achieve that. We achieve this. We really want to achieve that. Ah, bingo, there we go, got it.
