The spelling of "john doree" is a bit tricky due to the silent letters involved. The IPA phonetic transcription for this word is /dʒɒn dɒriː/ where the "j" sound is pronounced as in "jump," the "o" sound is short and followed by the "n" sound, and the second "o" followed by two "e's" are silent. The "r" sound is pronounced, and finally, there is an extra "e" sound at the end. So, the correct pronunciation of "john doree" is /dʒɒn dɒriː/.
The word "john doree" is an alternate spelling of "John Dory", which refers to a type of fish. The etymology of the term is uncertain, but it is believed to have originated from French. One theory suggests that "John Dory" may come from the French phrase "jaune doré", meaning "golden yellow", which describes the fish's coloration. Another theory proposes that it derives from "janitore" or "jaun doree", which were names given to certain Mediterranean fish in the Middle Ages. Due to variations and different interpretations, the exact etymology remains somewhat speculative.
