The popular phrase "gets someone horn" has an interesting spelling that can be explained using IPA phonetic transcription. The first word "gets" is spelled /ˈɡɛts/, with a hard "g" and a short "e" sound. The second word "someone" is spelled /ˈsʌmwʌn/, with a short "o" sound and a schwa in the second syllable. The third word "horn" is spelled /hɔrn/, with an "o" sound that is pronounced further back in the mouth. Despite how it may be perceived, this phrase actually has nothing to do with actual horns!
