The correct spelling of the word "brings short" reflects its phonetic transcription: /brɪŋz ʃɔːt/. The word "brings" is pronounced with the voiced consonant /z/ at the end, whereas "short" ends with the unvoiced consonant /ʃ/. This difference in consonants makes it necessary to add the letter "s" after "bring" to maintain a smooth transition between the words. Remembering the phonetic transcription of words can be helpful in improving spelling and pronunciation skills.
