The spelling of the word "clot pelvinum" is derived from the Latin term "clot" means clot and "pelvinum" means pelvic. The correct IPA phonetic transcription for this word is /klɑt pɛlˈvɪnəm/. The phonetic symbol /kl/ represents the initial consonant cluster, followed by the long vowel /ɑ/ and the voiceless alveolar stop /t/. The second word is pronounced with the open-mid front unrounded vowel /ɛ/, the voiceless labiodental fricative /f/, and the vowel /ɪ/ before the nasal sound /n/.
