The word "guilty" is often misspelled as "guity" due to the similar sound of the second syllable. However, the correct spelling includes the letter "L". The IPA phonetic transcription for "guilty" is /ˈɡɪlti/, with stress on the first syllable. The "G" is pronounced as a hard "G" sound, the "I" is pronounced as "ih", the "L" is pronounced as a light "L", and the "TY" together make a "Tee" sound. Remembering the correct spelling can prevent confusion and errors in written communication.
