How Do You Spell DECANDRIAN?

Pronunciation: [dɪkˈandɹi͡ən] (IPA)

Decandrian is a word used in botany to describe a flower with ten stamens. Its spelling is based on the Greek prefix "deca-" meaning ten, and the suffix "-andrian" which refers to stamens. In IPA phonetic transcription, it would be pronounced as "dɛˈkændriən". The stress falls on the second syllable, with the "a" being pronounced as "æ". The "d" in the beginning is pronounced as "d" and not "th" as one might expect based on the spelling.
