I am conceiving the pronunciation of 'moral' and 'mortal' to be the same.
Am I right? Please let me know.
Thanks. |

No, the pronunciation of "moral" and "mortal" are not the same.
The beginning of both are "more" but the second one has (in my dialect of American English) what sounds like a "d" in the middle. I would expect some dialects to have more of a "t" sound. |
