Find the sounds in migliore
Read migliore in these IPA segments: miʎ · ˈʎo · re. Dots and stress marks identify the boundaries shown in the reference; these symbols are not English spelling. The mark /ˈ/ comes immediately before the main stressed syllable. Give that syllable a little more prominence without swallowing the others.
1.The palatal l /ʎ/
In migliore: Raise the middle of your tongue while keeping an l-like sound at the sides. Listen to how it joins the next vowel.
Watch out: An ordinary English l or a separate g-l sequence changes this sound.
2.The Italian r
In migliore: Use the tip of the tongue near the ridge behind the upper teeth. A light contact or brief trill is different from a curled English r.
Watch out: Avoid pulling the tongue back into an English “r” shape.
3.A steady /e/ vowel
In migliore: Keep the tongue toward the front and sustain a single /e/ vowel. Listen for its exact height in the recording.
Watch out: English “ay” often ends with a glide; do not automatically carry that glide into this vowel.
