Emphasis errors

1. Start with coffee.
   I don’t know who it is, but this is the drink that starts my morning. Very delicious and often pronounced with mistakes. We will not talk about espresso, because you probably already remember how to order this drink. Let's talk about the latte. Sad to admit, even waiters sometimes mispronounce the name. But you won't fall into that trap again! The emphasis should be placed on the first syllable. Right: latte. Another type of coffee that puts many people in an awkward position with its pronunciation. Written, by the way, with one “c”, no options. With the accent still unambiguous: it falls on the last syllable. Right: glare.

2. When we talk about coffee, we talk about dessert.
   Namely about all the favorite Italian delicacy - tiramisu. For a long time he could not acquire a stable stress, because in Italian, where the word came to us, the name of the dessert consists of three words. But in 2012, it became official and unambiguoustiramisu?

4. Not coffee alone...
   Let’s talk about other drinks, especially plums. Juice, puree, compote - everything will be plum, with emphasis on the first syllable. Same thing with pear drinks. Many people find the letter “e” in this word and stress the second syllable. Except that letter isn't there. That's right. rustic.
