But how to identify/ remember correct pronunciation for words with differently sounding ch sounds? Eg Chorus (k), Niche (sh/ ch), Charger (ch), Cher (sh), Chateau (sh)..
Good question, but not an easy rule to apply. Most of the words that retain the Ch as K pronunciation are likely words that came into English from Greek.
Great question. The Ch spelling can represent different spoken sounds in English. Character and Chameleon have a K sound, like the C sound in Cat. Chef has an Sh sound like the Sh in Shoe.
The ch in “school” sounds more like g than k in American English. Could you explain? It seems like the s makes the unvoiced consonants voiced. Other examples include “study”, “scale”, etc.
Sorry to disappoint, but there's no way to know from seeing a word. The K pronunciation is less common. Best to just review the list of common words with this pronunciation, so you're familiar with them.
My name is "Marcheta" and the "ch" is pronounced like a "k". It gets mispronounced all the time. There's even a song "Marcheta" and the "ch" is correctly pronounced as a "k". Listen to the recording of the song "Marcheta" by Mario Lanza and you'll hear it pronounced correctly.
Do you know any more words where the Ch is pronounced like K?
