The pronunciation of any word in English (or any language at all) is not Universal.  This is because there are many different dialects of The English Language — both throughout America, and also world-wide.  The pronunciations that are presented on GiveMeSomeEnglish!!! are based-upon a combination of both “common usage”, and the most neutral accent used in The International Common Tongue — a.k.a. “American English”.

American – For this word:  the “A” turns into a u-schwa;  the “e” is pronounced like the Long “A” / Short “I” Diphthong (this is due to the placement of the letter “r” directly after it);  the “i” is an i-schwa;  the “c” is hard;  and the second “a” turns into an i-schwa.

– /uh-MAYR-ih-kihn/ – /ə(ʌ).ˈmeɪɹ.ə(ɪ).kə(ɪ)n/ – Notice also that the stress is on the second syllable –
