Pronounce as /ˈæ.nəˌlaɪ.zərz/ (US) or /ˈæn.əˌlaɪ.zəz/ (UK/AU). The primary stress is on the first syllable: AN.uh-LY-zurz. Break it into three parts: a-NAL-yze- rs, with the -er plural ending sounded as -ərz. Keep the /ɪ/ or /aɪ/ in the middle as a clear, short diphthong. See examples: ‘analyzers that process data’.
Common errors: (1) Misplacing primary stress, saying /ˈæ.nəˈlaɪ.zɚz/ or /ˈæ.nəˌlaɪˈzɜːrz/. (2) Slurring the middle /laɪ/ into /laɪə/ or /laɪz/. Correct by isolating /laɪ/ as a tight diphthong and keeping the final /ərz/ clear. Practice with minimal pairs like ‘analyze’ vs ‘analyzers’ to preserve the syllable boundaries.
US: primary stress on first syllable /ˈæ.nəˌlaɪ.zərz/, rhotic /ɹ/ at the end as a syllabic r-sound depending on speaker. UK/AU: /ˈæn.əˌlaɪ.zəz/ with a non-rhotic ending; final /zəz/ or /zəz/ depending on connected speech. AU speakers may showcase more centralized vowel qualities and a slightly flatter intonation in the last syllable. Overall, US tends to keep the final -er as /ɹ/ with stronger rhoticity, while UK/AU render the final syllable as /zəz/.
Two main challenges: (1) the three-syllable rhythm with a mid-phrase -laɪ- sequence requires crisp articulation to avoid blending into ‘analyze’ forms. (2) The final -erz/-əz cluster invites variation between /ərz/ and /əz/ depending on accent; keeping a clean /z/ plus a clear schwa or reduced vowel helps. Focus on the three-stress pattern and the mid-syllable /laɪ/ as a sharp, audible unit to prevent swallowing.
There are no silent letters in analyzers, but the balance of syllables affects intonation: you’ll often hear a slight rise on the second syllable (‘AN-uh-LY-zers’) in neutral declaratives, and a more clipped, faster delivery in technical speech. The plural ending /zərz/ can cluster quickly if spoken in continuous text; pause slightly before the final /z/ to ensure clarity.

Analyzers derives from the verb analyze (from Latin analysare, via Greek análysis ‘a loosening’ of parts) with the agentive suffix -er and plural -s. Analyze entered English from late Middle English through Latinized science vocabulary, with early senses centered on breaking something into its components for examination. The form analys- shifted in pronunciation and spelling to align with English morphology in the 18th–19th centuries as analytical science grew—discipline-specific terms adopted the -er suffix to denote tools or agents. The modern plural analyzers emerged to describe multiple tools or people that perform analysis. First known usage in technical literature appears in the 19th century with scientific and mathematical texts, then expanding to computing and data analytics in the 20th century, reflecting the rise of automated analysis and software-based evaluators.
