The word "annulates" is spelled with two "n"s and two "l"s, despite the fact that it may be pronounced as "an-yuh-lates." This is because the word is derived from the Latin term "annulus," which means "ring" or "circle." In English, words derived from Latin often retain the original spelling rather than adapting to new pronunciation patterns. Therefore, despite its unusual pronunciation, "annulates" remains spelled with two "n"s and two "l"s. [əˈnjuːleɪts]
