The spelling of the word "EKVL" might seem unusual to some, but it actually follows the rules of the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA). The first two letters "EK" represent the sound /ɛk/, similar to the "ec" in "echo". The "V" at the end represents the sound /v/, as in "vase". The "L" in the middle is pronounced as /l/, like in "lemon". Therefore, the correct pronunciation of "EKVL" would be /ɛkvl/.
