How do we correctly pronounce the word «vowel» ?
I checked the IPA(ˈvaʊəl) but can’t figure out.
Is it like va val or vao al? Thanks

#2
/aʊ/ is a diphthong in English, so it always belongs to the same syllable. So if ‘vowel’ is said as a two-syllable word, it’s /ˈvaʊ.əl/. For some people however it may be more like a single syllable, with the /ə/ weak.
