The spelling of the word "garoutte" can be explained using the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) as /ɡəˈruːt/. The first syllable "ga" is pronounced with a schwa sound followed by a hard "g" sound. The second syllable "rou" is pronounced as "r-oo" with a long vowel sound, and the final syllable "tte" is pronounced with a silent "e" at the end. The spelling may seem unusual, but it is not uncommon for surnames to have unique spellings that differ from their pronunciation.
