The spelling of the word "Goltschut" may seem unusual to English speakers, but it is actually a transliteration from the German language. In IPA phonetic transcription, it would be spelled as /ɡɔltʃʊt/. The "o" in the first syllable is pronounced like the "o" in "lot," and the "u" in the second syllable is pronounced like in "put." The "ch" sound in both syllables is pronounced like the "ch" in the Scottish word "loch." The "t" at the end is a voiceless consonant, similar to the "t" in "top".
