"La filoj de la familio amas la bebon."

Translation: The sons of the family love the baby.

The speaker pronounces "familio" incorrectly in many of the examples including this one. The accent should always fall on the next-to-last syllable. It should be fami-LI-o, not fa-MI-lio.

[Leanderion]

I don't know about the Esperanto pronounciation rules but at least in Spanish, the vocals i and u are "weak" and thus fuse with other vocals to one syllable. Then again this isn't Spanish...

[AlexMartinezGT]

You're right with the Spanish grammar, but those rules don't work in Esperanto. The pronunciation of "familio" is: fa-mi-LI-o.

I bet the daughters do, too.

Does the word "Filo" follow the same rules explained at the beginning of this course? Filo (son), Filino (girl), Gefinoj (children)?

[camcamcam753]

Gefiloj, not gefinoj.

[EgidioIani]

The pronunciation of "familio" is fa-mi-LI-o, not fa-MI-ljo.

[PigJosh]

The word for 'Girl' in French is 'Fille' so this could get a bit confusing lol

[churaesie]

The sons of the family vs. “in” the family?

[jdubya67]

To my ear it sounds like he is saying "filoj da la familio"
Am I the only one?
