Hi, not everyone speaks the same way. Did you try looking them up on Merriam Webster online? There are audio files there.

David, for entrepreneur,

start with Awn (like Yawn, but witout the y) then truh (like the start of trouble) then pruh (you can make it rhyme with the "truh") noor (that one is harder, but you can make it rhyme with "more")

It's not perfect, but I no longer remember IPA.

Environment = N-vire-o-ment

Entrepreneur (is a french word originally) so - Ont-reh-pre-nur
