How Do You Spell CEPHALOMELUS?

Pronunciation: [sˈɛfɐlˌə͡ʊmləs] (IPA)

The word "cephalomelus" has a unique spelling that can be explained using IPA phonetic transcription. It is pronounced as /sɛfəlɑˈmɛləs/, where the emphasis is on the second syllable. The initial "c" is pronounced as "s" sound, while "ph" is pronounced as "f". The word is a combination of two Greek words: "cephalo" meaning head and "melos" meaning limb. "Cephalomelus" therefore refers to a developmental anomaly in which a limb is derived from the head region. Despite its complex spelling, the word is surprisingly decipherable with the help of its phonetic transcription.
