Almond can be pronounced with or without an L sound. Drawing - perhaps most British speakers say the second invisible R, but most Americans don't say it that way (said with only one R).

By the way, 'mischievous', the way it's written, take us to the ancient pronunciation 'mis.CHEE.vuus' (uu = oo). Nowadays it's archaic to say 'mis.CHEE.ves' (recommended spelling for this: mischeevus), because many French loans have become stressed in the 1st syllable, the English way, and thus people say 'MIS.chi.ves' (recommended spelling: mischivus).

Comments about two of the words from an American. Almond. Americans are divided in how to pronounce it, mostly it's a regional thing, but either way you say it people will know what you mean. -- I lived in an area where many almonds are grown, and there was a common joke that was told. You need to know that the nuts are harvested by using a large tractor that grabs the trunk of the tree and shakes it very hard to make the nuts fall off the tree. The joke is, "You say all-monds when they're on the tree but ah-minds when they're harvested because you had to knock the L out of them." Route. As the name of a road, or as a description of a way to go one usually says "root." Route 66 = "root 66." "Will you take the direct or scenic route?" (root) When it's used to describe a regular path followed by, say, a delivery driver or a postman delivering the mail one usually says "rowt." "I better get moving, I have sixteen stops on my route today." (rowt)

The ones that were tricky to me were when the pronunciation changes depending on if it's a verb or not. Like use and uselessness. I noticed you say the 'oo' in soot very much in front of your mouth which makes it sound a bit like a short u. My mother language (Dutch) has a similar sound 'oe' (for example book = boek and it sounds almost the same) but I need to be very careful not to pronounce it in the back of my throat.
