How Do You Spell DE MOTION?
Pronunciation: [də mˈə͡ʊʃən] (IPA) 
The correct spelling of the word "de motion" is actually "demotion". The IPA phonetic transcription for this word is /diˈməʊʃ(ə)n/. It is a noun that defines the act of lowering someone's position or rank within an organization or company. The word is derived from the Latin word "demovere" which means "to move down". Therefore, the spelling of "demotion" makes sense phonetically because of the pronunciation of the letter "e" as "i" in the initial syllable, and the silent "e" in the latter part.
