/
prənʌnsɪˈeɪʃ(ə)n/
n.
the way in which a word is pronounced.
Usage
The word pronunciation is often pronounced, by analogy with pronounce, as if the second syllable rhymed with bounce. This is not correct in standard English: the second syllable should rhyme with dunce. The correct spelling is pronunciation, not pronounciation.
