Answer 1

The true statement about how pronunciation appears in a dictionary is: The pronunciation breaks the word into syllables.

While dictionaries do provide pronunciation guides, they typically use a phonetic notation system (like the International Phonetic Alphabet) to show how to pronounce words, which may not always include syllable breaks or emphasize syllables in italics. However, they often do separate syllables visually.
