How Do You Spell KUHN?
Pronunciation: [kˈuːn] (IPA) 
The spelling of the word "kuhn" is unusual and confusing. It is pronounced as /ku:n/, with a long "u" sound and a silent "h". The reason for this spelling is that the word comes from a German surname, and the original German spelling was Kühn. However, the umlaut (the two dots above the letter "u" in German) is not used in English, so the spelling was adjusted to "kuhn". This is an example of how language and spelling can evolve and change over time.
