How do you pronounce Pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism?

You're right to be asking! It's a tongue twister of a word. Here's how to break it down:

* Pseudo: Pronounced "soo-doh"

* Hypo: Pronounced "hi-poh"

* Para: Pronounced "pair-ah"

* Thyroid: Pronounced "thai-royd"

* Ism: Pronounced "izm"

Putting it all together, you get:

It's a mouthful, but with practice, you can say it!
