dießaißiw ist korrekt.

Englisch ist da oft inkonsistent.

despise ([dispais]) vs despicable ([despikebl])

Hallo,

jedes gute (online) Wörterbuch, z. B. pons.com, dict.cc, leo.org usw. zeigt dir mit der Lautschrift an, wie ein Wort - hier: de·ci·sive [dɪˈsaɪsɪv] - ausgesprochen wird, neben den Wörtern findest du auch ein Lautsprecher-Symbol. Per Mausklick werden dir dort die Wörter angesagt.

Unter folgendem Link kannst du die Sprache und einen Sprecher auswählen, die Wörter eingeben, dann ein Häkchen vor terms & conditions setzen, auf Synthetize klicken und wenige Sekunden später auf das Play Symbol klicken, um dir die Wörter ansagen zu lassen.

Je nach Dialekt hört man aber auch andere Varianten, außerdem muss man bei Eigennamen Vorsicht walten lassen.

Analogien helfen bei der Aussprache im Englischen selten.

decision [dɪˈsɪʒən]- (to) decide [dɪˈsaɪd] - de·ci·sive [dɪˈsaɪsɪv]

Die Regel lautet: ein langes i wird saɪ ausgesprochen, ein kurzes i dagegen sɪ (z. B. child, aber children).

Diese Regel hilft einem bei unbekannten Wörtern leider überhaupt nicht.

Während wir im Deutschen im Großen und Ganzen nach der Schrift sprechen, ist das in anderen Sprachen - beileibe nicht nur im Englischen - eben anders.

Es geht das Gerücht, dass George Bernard Shaw in einem Vorwort zu dem Gedicht English Pronunciation geschrieben haben soll,

If you can pronounce correctly every word in this poem, you will be speaking English better than 90% of the native English speakers in the world.

Gerücht oder nicht - da ist viel Wahres dran!

Dearest creature in creation,

Study English pronunciation.

I will teach you in my verse

Sounds like corpse, corps, horse, and worse.

I will keep you, Suzy, busy,

Make your head with heat grow dizzy.

Tear in eye, your dress will tear.

So shall I! Oh hear my prayer.

Just compare heart, beard, and heard,

Dies and diet, lord and word,

Sword and sward, retain and Britain.

(Mind the latter, how it's written.)

Now I surely will not plague you

With such words as plaque and ague.

But be careful how you speak:

Say break and steak, but bleak and streak;

Cloven, oven, how and low,

Script, receipt, show, poem, and toe.

Hear me say, devoid of trickery,

Daughter, laughter, and Terpsichore,

Typhoid, measles, topsails, aisles,

Exiles, similes, and reviles;

Scholar, vicar, and cigar,

Solar, mica, war and far;

One, anemone, Balmoral,

Kitchen, lichen, laundry, laurel;

Gertrude, German, wind and mind,

Scene, Melpomene, mankind.

Billet does not rhyme with ballet,

Bouquet, wallet, mallet, chalet.

Blood and flood are not like food,

Nor is mould like should and would.

Viscous, viscount, load and broad,

Toward, to forward, to reward.

And your pronunciation's OK

When you correctly say croquet,

Rounded, wounded, grieve and sieve,

Friend and fiend, alive and live.

Ivy, privy, famous; clamour

And enamour rhyme with hammer.

River, rival, tomb, bomb, comb,

Doll and roll and some and home.

Stranger does not rhyme with anger,

Neither does devour with clangour.

Souls but foul, haunt but aunt,

Font, front, wont, want, grand, and grant,

Shoes, goes, does. Now first say finger,

And then singer, ginger, linger,

Real, zeal, mauve, gauze, gouge and gauge,

Marriage, foliage, mirage, and age.

Query does not rhyme with very,

Nor does fury sound like bury.

Dost, lost, post and doth, cloth, loth.

Job, nob, bosom, transom, oath.

Though the differences seem little,

We say actual but victual.

Refer does not rhyme with deafer.

Foeffer does, and zephyr, heifer.

Mint, pint, senate and sedate;

Dull, bull, and George ate late.

Scenic, Arabic, Pacific,

Science, conscience, scientific.

Liberty, library, heave and heaven,

Rachel, ache, moustache, eleven.

We say hallowed, but allowed,

People, leopard, towed, but vowed.

Mark the differences, moreover,

Between mover, cover, clover;

Leeches, breeches, wise, precise,

Chalice, but police and lice;

Camel, constable, unstable,

Principle, disciple, label.

Petal, panel, and canal,

Wait, surprise, plait, promise, pal.

Worm and storm, chaise, chaos, chair,

Senator, spectator, mayor.

Tour, but our and succour, four.

Gas, alas, and Arkansas.

Sea, idea, Korea, area,

Psalm, Maria, but malaria.

Youth, south, southern, cleanse and clean.

Doctrine, turpentine, marine.

Compare alien with Italian,

Dandelion and battalion.

Sally with ally, yea, ye,

Eye, I, ay, aye, whey, and key.

Say aver, but ever, fever,

Neither, leisure, skein, deceiver.

Heron, granary, canary.

Crevice and device and aerie.

Face, but preface, not efface.

Phlegm, phlegmatic, ass, glass, bass.

Large, but target, gin, give, verging,

Ought, out, joust and scour, scourging.

Ear, but earn and wear and tear

Do not rhyme with here but ere.

Seven is right, but so is even,

Hyphen, roughen, nephew Stephen,

Monkey, donkey, Turk and jerk,

Ask, grasp, wasp, and cork and work.

Pronunciation (think of Psyche!)

Is a paling stout and spikey?

Won't it make you lose your wits,

Writing groats and saying grits?

It's a dark abyss or tunnel:

Strewn with stones, stowed, solace, gunwale,

Islington and Isle of Wight,

Housewife, verdict and indict.

Finally, which rhymes with enough,

Though, through, plough, or dough, or cough?

Hiccough has the sound of cup.

My advice is to give up!!!

es gibt viele solche Aussprache-Inkonsistenzen im Englischen, man muss die Aussprache jeder Wortform einzeln lernen. Prominentes Beispiel: live. "after attending yesterday's live concert, I am again grateful to live here." Beide live in diesem Satz werden verschieden ausgesprochen.
