The spelling of the word "acormus" may appear confusing at first glance. However, with the help of IPA phonetic transcription, its pronunciation becomes clearer. The correct pronunciation of "acormus" is /əˈkɔːməs/, with the stress on the second syllable. The first vowel sound is schwa while the second vowel sound is pronounced with an 'o'. The 'r' and 'm' sounds are blended together, forming a consonant cluster. The final 's' sound is pronounced with the 'z' sound due to its position at the end of the word.
