How do you pronounce anthropomorphic?

The correct pronunciation of anthropomorphic is:

an-thro-pə-ˈmȯr-fik

Here's a breakdown:

* an-: The "a" sound is short, like in "cat".

* thro-: The "th" is like the "th" in "thin". The "o" is short, like in "hot".

* pə-: The "p" is soft and the "ə" is a schwa, a short, unstressed vowel sound.

* ˈmȯr-: The stress is on the "m" and the "o" is pronounced with a long "o" sound, like in "more".

* fik: The "f" is pronounced like the "f" in "fish" and the "i" is short, like in "kick".

So, the pronunciation is similar to "an-throw-po-MOR-fic", but with a softer "p" sound and a short "i" at the end.
