The spelling of the word "Coetta" can be quite confusing to some. It is pronounced /kəʊˈɛtə/ (koh-ET-uh) and the first syllable is pronounced as "koh", not "koo". The second syllable is pronounced as "ET", like the name "Etta" but with a stressed "E". Lastly, the final syllable is pronounced with a neutral "uh" sound. Despite its unique spelling, "Coetta" can be easily pronounced once the correct phonetic transcription is understood.
