How to Pronounce entrepreneur
Language: English (from French) IPA: /ˌɒntrəprəˈnɜːr/
Pronunciation explanation
Four syllables: on-truh-pruh-NER (British) or ahn-truh-pruh-NUR (American). This French loanword retains its original stress on the last syllable. The "eu" at the end sounds like the "ur" in "fur".
Practice tip
on-truh-pruh-NUR. The stress is always on the LAST syllable. Think: "entre" + "preneur" (as in manure without the man).
