Question
project
first syllable
second syllable
To determine the syllables of "project", we analyze its pronunciation. The word "project" (when used as a noun, e.g., a task or undertaking) is pronounced as /ˈprɒdʒekt/ (in British English) or /ˈprɑːdʒekt/ (in American English). Breaking it into syllables:
- First syllable: "pro" (from the pronunciation, the stress is on the first syllable, and the first part of the word's sound is "pro").
- Second syllable: "ject" (the remaining part of the word's sound is "ject").
If we were to write the syllables:
- First syllable: pro
- Second syllable: ject
(Note: If "project" is used as a verb, pronounced /prəˈdʒekt/, the stress shifts to the second syllable, but the syllable division remains "pro" (first) and "ject" (second) — only the stress changes.)
