Common Mispronunciations of Conclude

Not KAHN-klood

The second beat takes everything, and concluded and concluding hold it in the same place.

Not kuhn-KLYOOD

An l leaves no room for a y glide, so the second beat is a plain KLOOD.

Tip: Conclude finishes on a hard d, while conclusion softens that same letter to the zh of measure.
