How Do You Spell HEMOCYTOTRIPSIS?
Pronunciation: [hˌiːməsˌɪtətɹˈɪpsɪs] (IPA) 
Hemocytotripsis (/ˌhiː.məʊ.saɪtəʊˈtrɪpsɪs/) is a term that refers to the breaking down of blood cells. In terms of spelling, "hemo" comes from the Greek word for "blood" (haima), "cyto" refers to cells, and "tripsis" means "breaking down". The use of IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) helps to clarify the pronunciation of the word, as the spelling "hemocytotripsis" can appear overwhelming and confusing at first glance. With a basic understanding of word roots and phonetics, however, spelling such complex words becomes more manageable.
