Routeroot or rout

Often - off-ten or off-en

Pecan - pih-con, pih-can, pee-con, pee-can

Adult - uh-dult  or ah-dult

Foyer foy-yay or foy-ur

Mauve - mawv or mohv

Niche nitch  or neesh

Valet val-it or val-ay

Aerie ay-ry, ir-ry, or airy

Routeroot

Often - off-en

Pecan - pee-can

Adult - ah-dult

Foyer foy-yay (what even is foy-ur, I never heard that before, it sounds so strange), also I'd say it's more of a fo-yay, with the yay being the stressed part

Mauve - mawv

Niche - neesh

Valet  - val-ay

Aerie - airy (don't know that word, but it looks like it should be pronounced like that, according to the translator I used it's supposed to sound like ee-ry)

Opera - op-er-uh

using IPA so it's more accurate to how I pronounce things because not everywhere pronounces vowels the same

 

Route -  /ɹuËt/

Often - /ˈɔfnÌ©/,

Pecan - /ˈpiËkÉ™n/

Adult - /əˈdÊŒlt/

Foyer - /ˈfȯi(-ə)r/

Mauve - /mÉ”Ëv/

Niche - /niËʃ/

Valet -  /ˈvæleɪ/

Aerie - idk I've never said or heard of this word before

Opera - /ˈɒp.ɹə/

That's cool too. Unfortunately, most people won't be able to make out what you're saying. I studied IPA back in college however, so I can understand it fine.
