Febriculosity is spelled with a long "e" sound at the beginning, followed by "bric," which uses a hard "k" sound, and the suffix "-ulosity," which is pronounced with a long "u" sound. In the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA), it is transcribed as /fɛbrɪkjuːˈlɒsɪti/. This uncommon word means a slight or mild fever, and is useful for distinguishing between different levels of body temperature. While not commonly used, it is a precise term for a specific medical condition.
