Listen and learn how to say Salmon correctly with Julien, "how do you pronounce" free pronunciation audio/video tutorials.

An explanation to the Silent L to Salmon word:
The silent “L,” as in salmon
A dig around discussion forums confirms the silent “L” is a regional thing in the U.S. as in the U.K. Some Americans ignore the “L” in foods like salmon and almond, and others give them the full wellie, saying SAL-mon and ALL-mond. The Merriam-Webster dictionary, however, has “SAM-un” as the pronunciation for salmon, as does the MacMillan dictionary. Interestingly, while MacMillan includes the “L” sound in almond, it also gives two different pronunciations of the “A” in the American pronunciation. The latest TV commercial for Hershey’s Almond Joy has a subtle “L” sound in there. In short, it depends how you pronounced it back in Blighty and where you are in the U.S. as to whether there will be any surprises in store. (Personally, and I’m British, I use no “L” in either word. And I use a British long “A” in almond, like I’d say Arm, with no rhotic “R.”) Source: [ Ссылка ]

Video Content (transcription):
Famously, the L to this word is silent, either in British English, or in American English. In both cases, you ought to pronounce Seh-M'n. Salmon. Salmon. Salmon. Salmon fish. Salmon. Seh M'n. Salmon.
