With nine letter and four syllables, the tongue-twisting "phenomenon" has been named as the most mispronounced word in the English language. 由九个字母和四个音节组成的，发音饶舌的“现象”一词成为英语里面最难念的单词。 The word came first in a study of terms that are tricky to get your tongue around, with most people mixing up the letters M and N on a regular basis.
这个词在调查中之所以名列榜首，是因为phenomenon中的"m"和"n"一个连一个，让你的嘴皮子倒腾不过来。 "Anaesthetist" came second because of quickly moving between the TH to the letters T at the end. “麻醉师”一词的发音排名第二，难就难在"th"和"t"的音连接得太紧。 In third place was "remuneration", which is often mispronounced as "renumeration". “报酬”位居第三。这个词难在它经常被误读为"renumeration"。 Almost half of the 3,000 people surveyed admitted they often correct someone if they say something in the wrong way and a quarter of people said they thought mispronunciation showed a lack of intelligence. 参与调查的3000人中，几乎一半的受访者表示他们经常会纠正别人错误的发音，四分之一的受访者说，发音错误容易给人知识水平不高的印象。 But suprisingly in the list of admissions, Britons admitted that February was the 12th hardest word to spit out. 令人惊奇的是，英国人把“二月”一词推上榜单，位列最难发音的第十二位。 A spokesman for Spinvox, a voicemail to text message service, which carried out the research, said: "Phenomenon is very hard to say because of the structure of the word." 语音通信公司Spinvox进行了这项调查。该公司的发言人说：“Phenomenon这个字很难念是因为这个词本身的结构。”

In third place was 'remuneration', which isoften mispronounced as 'renumeration'. （3）由于拼写中包含众多的T和S，“statistics”和“ethnicity”分别是第四和第五难读的单词。 With the numbers of Ts and Ss in the word, the fourth mostdifficult to pronounce was 'statistics' and 'ethnicity' was in fifth place. （4）“phenomenon” 这一单词有9个字母4个音节，发音十分拗口，也被名副其实地评为英语中最容易发错音的单词。 With nine letter and foursyllables, the tongue-twisting 'phenomenon' has been named as the mostmispronounced word in the English language.
