Pronunciation of S in: de moins en moins

White L.A2Kwiziq Q&A regular contributor

Is the S silent for both? The pronounciation seems to differ with the speakers/examples. The woman speaking the following does not pronounce the S: Les ordinateurs deviennent de moins en moins chers. But the woman speaking the following sentence does: Nous y allons de moins en moins souvent.

This question relates to:French lesson "De plus en plus / De moins en moins + [adverbe/adjectif/verbe] = more and more / less and less + [adverb/adjective/verb] (Comparisons in French)"

Hi White,

Thank you for pointing out this error, we have changed some of the audios to reflect the correct pronunciation and appropriate liaisons.
