Feingold is a surname which is spelled as /ˈfaɪngold/ in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA). The first syllable is pronounced as "f-eye" and the second syllable as "ng-old". The "f" and "ng" sounds are produced by pressing the upper teeth against the lower lip and the back of the tongue against the soft palate respectively. The spelling of Feingold reflects the German-Jewish origin of the name, which might have undergone some changes during migration and anglicization.
