The Chinese phrase "欢呼" is translated to "cheer" in English. Here’s how to pronounce it:
- Cheer is pronounced as /tʃɪər/:
- tʃ: The "tʃ" is a voiceless postalveolar affricate, similar to the "ch" in "church".
- ɪə: The "ɪə" is a falling diphthong, starting with the "ɪ" sound as in "it" and gliding to the "ə" sound, similar to the "ear" in "ear".
When pronouncing "cheer", it's important to blend the "ch" sound smoothly into the "ear" sound, maintaining a clear and enthusiastic tone, as the word represents an expression of joy or approval.
