How to spell introduce

hear itin·tro·duce/,ɪntrə'dus/verbRules and real life

What it means: To make someone known to another person.

In a sentence: I will introduce you to my puppy.

The part people get wrong

Often misspelled as intoduce or intruduce.

Same family: introduction, introductory, reintroduce, present, announce. If you can spell one, the shared part carries to the others.

Where it comes from: “Introduce” comes from Latin *introducere*, meaning “to lead into” (*intro-* = into, *ducere* = to lead). It originally described leading someone into a place or company, which is why we still say we “introduce” people to each other.
