The correct spelling of the word "krings" can be confusing. Although it may appear as if it should be spelled with a double "r", it is actually spelled with only one "r". The IPA phonetic transcription of this word is /krɪŋz/. The "k" is pronounced as a hard "k" sound, followed by the "r" sound, and then the short "i" sound. The "ng" sound is made with the back of the tongue touching the soft palate, and the final "s" sound is pronounced softly.
