10. Rural (/ ˈrʊərəl /)
Rural means rural.
The word "rural" means a rural area that sometimes makes the reader confused when the "r" sound is repeated twice and quite close together. A reader shared: "I cannot pronounce correctly from Rural Juror - it will sound like rurrrerr jerrrerr. I feel like I'm roaring."
"Germans have problems pronouncing this word," another said. "We can read from Squirrel (squirrel) but it can't be from rural."

8. Colonel (/ ˈkɜːnl /)

7. Penguin (/ ˈpeŋɡwɪn /)

6. Sixth (/ sɪksθ /)
Words that tail tones include 1-2 syllables will bring obstacles to the reader.

5. Isthmus (/ ˈɪsθməs /)
Isthmus is a narrow strip of land connecting two lands and a sea surrounding the two sides.
Just like "sixth" , having two "s" and "th" sounds next to each other makes it difficult for the reader. By definition, "Isthmus" is a narrow strip of land connecting the two lands and the sea surrounding the two sides.

This word is one of the words that Germans feel the most headache.
For Germans, "Squirrel" is one of the words that makes them suffer the most. Even in World War II, both sides used the word to find spies in the military. Perhaps, no matter how good a spy is, imitating the correct intonation of another language is impossible.
2. Choir (/ ˈkwaɪə (r) /)
Someone took 5 minutes to figure out how to read this word.
Many people believe that you can pronounce the word "Choir" as the word " enquire" but without the " en" prefix .

1. Worcestershire (/ ˈwʊstəʃ (ɪ) ə /)
The key "cest" in the middle of the sentence has made many readers confused.

The key "cest" in the middle of the sentence has made many readers confused. If you can split it into a single "worce-ster-shire" sound, the pronunciation becomes easier.
