homosexual
/omoseɡˈswal/ · B1 · adj
homosexual
🏳️🌈 Same word as English: Greek homo (same) + sexual; stress the end: o-mo-seg-SWAL
Spelled exactly like the English word, but the h is silent and the x sounds like gs. The final -ual merges into one syllable, swal, which takes the stress. The plural is homosexuales.
