Dear teachers,
Today I came across the word of “undoes” several times in my reading and it really got me embarrassed about how to pronounce it. Just now I went to some online pronunciation dictionaries and some online general purpose dictionaries to look it up but most of them told me how to read “undo”, “undid”, “undone” and “undoing”, whose pronunciations I am already clear about. And two dictionaries did tell me how to pronounce it, but, unfortunately, the pronunciations they gave are different – one being /ʌn'du:z/ and the other being /ʌn'dʌz/. Please tell me, which one is its correct pronunciation, /ʌn'du:z/ or /ʌn'dʌz/?
Thanks a lot.
Richard
