What meeting means

meeting is an English word that can be practiced as a complete unit rather than as a list of letters. Use the audio, simple spelling, IPA, syllables, and stress together so you can recognize the word when listening and say it naturally in a sentence.

What makes this word difficult

Start with the simple guide “MEE-ting”, then check the IPA /ˈmiːtɪŋ/. Keep the main beat on “MEE-ting” and avoid giving every syllable equal weight. Listen for the final sound before moving on to the next word in a sentence. Written spelling can hide reduced vowels or connected sounds in meeting. Treat the simple guide as a starting point, then confirm the exact sounds with the audio.

Mouth and tongue position

Say the word slowly once, paying attention to the first consonant and the final sound. Then connect the syllables without inserting an extra vowel between them.

  • Reading every letter in meeting with the same strength.
  • Adding an extra vowel between syllables in meeting.
