Answer Question
Pronunciation of 'de'.
In Fluenz Portuguese 1, session 5, Repeat the Words, the word ‘de’ in the phrase ‘O suco de laranja’ is pronounced as ‘DAY’, whereas in session 4, the word ‘de’ in the Repeat the Words exercise phrase ‘Suco de laranja’ is pronounced as more of a ‘JAH’ sound. Are both correct ways of pronunciation for ‘de’? I thought the 'de' had a jee sound as in jeep. My ear might be missing something, but in the exercise it sounds as though she is saying 'day', as in the French contraction des.
