The word "brocious" is pronounced as /ˈbroʊʃəs/. This unusual spelling is due to the fact that it is a surname and is not a commonly used word. The first syllable "bro" is pronounced as "broh" with a long "o" sound, while the second syllable "cious" is pronounced as "shus". The letter "c" is pronounced as "sh" due to its placement before the letter "i". Despite its unconventional spelling, the pronunciation can be easily deciphered with the use of IPA phonetic transcription.
