How Do You Spell A LITTLE THE SIDE?
Pronunciation: [ɐ lˈɪtə͡l ðə sˈa͡ɪd] (IPA) 
The correct spelling for "a little the side" is actually "a little to the side." This expression means moving slightly away from the normal position. In IPA phonetic transcription, it would be written as ə ˈlɪtəl tu ðə saɪd. The schwa sound is used for the unstressed syllable "to" and the stress is on the second syllable of "little." The "d" sound in "to" changes to a "t" sound before the "s" in "side" due to consonant assimilation.
