Rachel English – Signed vs. Signature (What’s the difference?) 🖊️

When yuou sign your name,
you’re putting down your signature
Sign and signature.
These two words are related,
but let’s look at the first four letters.
they’re pronounced differently in the word sign
than in the word signature.
In the word sign there is no G sound.
S, AI diphthong, N. Sign.
but in the word signature
that diphthong changes to the IH vowel.
and now we do say the G, sig, sig, signature.
Sign.
Signature.
