minus-square@DerisionConsulting@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglish13•2 months agoIf it’s a word that already ends in an s in its singular form, like Travis, I would pronounce it like “Travis is”. It’s a word that only got an s at the end because it’s pluralized, like “Smiths”, I would generally just pronounce it like “Smiths”.
