How To Say Burger In American English

🤔 BURGER

Are you saying this word wrong?

A lot of English learners make this mistake, but it’s easy to fix.

In American English, we say: BUR-ger.

It’s not: BOOR-ger. It’s: BUR-ger.

There are two syllables:  BUR-ger.

The stress is on the first syllable: BUR-ger.

For the first syllable, use the American ER sound: BUR.

Then keep the second syllable short and weak: ger.

Put it together: BUR-ger.

• I want a BUR-ger.
• He ordered a cheeseburger.
• This BUR-ger is really good.
• Where can I get a good BUR-ger?

Let’s practice. I’ll say blue. You say green.

• BUR-ger.
• I want a BUR-ger.
• He ordered a cheeseburger.
• This BUR-ger is really good.
