Ensemble

Yes, ensemble, one of my favourite words to pronounce in English, probably due to its French origin, as croissant, façade or rendezvous. Take for example the sentence "The players from that string ensemble could all play the hardest parts of Paganini's Caprices with their eyes closed". Sure enough you'll agree with me that all the words in the previous sentence but "ensemble" are ordinary, commonplace, and dull when it comes to pronunciation. Oh yes, I can see your heads nodding in approval.
