The spelling of the word "CANAD" is incorrect as it should be spelled as "CANADA". The correct pronunciation is /kəˈnædə/ with the primary stress on the second syllable. The "a" in the second syllable has a short vowel sound, represented by the symbol "æ" in IPA. The final syllable "da" is pronounced with a schwa sound /ə/. It is essential to spell words correctly to communicate effectively and avoid confusion in written communication.
