Importance of Pronouncing Diphthongs Correctly

Correct pronunciation of diphthongs in English is important and can make a significant difference in clarity and understanding. Diphthongs are vowels that transition from one sound to another within the same syllable. Some diphthongs are easier to pronounce than others, but investing a little effort in practicing them can yield a high return on investment. Pronouncing diphthongs correctly requires moving the tongue to hit the next sound within the same syllable.
