Forvo, the world's largest pronunciation dictionary, has released its list of the most consulted words of 2019. Can you guess what words or names we could be talking about? In fact, an audio accessory is at the top of this year's list.
In comparison to the previous year, there are some terms and expressions that remain in the list, such as, "water", "through" or "schedule", which have become classic words in this classification.
