How Do You Spell JEOPARDISING?

Pronunciation: [d͡ʒˈɛpədˌa͡ɪzɪŋ] (IPA)

The word "jeopardising" is spelled with a "j" and not a "g" because it originates from the French word "jeopardir", where the "j" is pronounced as in the English word "jump". In IPA phonetic transcription, the word is spelled /ˈdʒɛp.ə.daɪz.ɪŋ/, where the "j" sound is represented by the symbol /dʒ/. The spelling may seem unusual, but it is important to remember that English borrows words from many different languages, and the spelling sometimes reflects the word's origin.
