Chlorcosane is a chemical compound that is spelled phonetically as /klɔːrkəʊseɪn/. The word can be broken down into its individual sounds starting from the beginning. The first two sounds are /kl/ which represent the consonants 'k' and 'l', followed by the vowel sound /ɔːr/ that is made up of an open mid-back rounded vowel. The third part is /kəʊ/ that is a diphthong made up of 'k' and 'oh'. The last two sounds are /seɪn/ consisting of a vowel and a nasal consonant. This combination of sounds is put together to form the word "chlorcosane."
