Turkish

Pronunciation
IPA: /fɪlɪm/

Note: The pronunciation is different because film is a loanword, and all Turkish words never have two consonant|consonants together at the same time. Therefore, this makes it hard for Turks to say loanwords with two consonants together, and they end up pronouncing "film" as "filim".

Noun
film

1. a medium used to capture images in a camera
