Difference between Quarrel and Quorum

Today’s question is from a YouTube viewer on the video How to Pronounce Quarrel:  “What is the difference between the words quarrel and quorum?”

Quarrel is pronounced K-W-OR-L

Quorum is pronounced K-W-OR-M

As you can see, the only difference is the last sound, L versus M.

L is made by touching the tip of the tongue to the back of the top, front teeth.  M is made by pressing the lips together.  So, focus on the last sound in each word to say them correctly.
