The spelling of "lady house" might seem straightforward, but it's not as simple as it appears. In IPA phonetic transcription, it would be /ˈleɪdi haʊs/. The stress is on the first syllable of "lady," with a long "a" sound. The "h" in "house" is silent, but the "ou" is pronounced like the diphthong /aʊ/. When writing this phrase, it's important to remember that "lady" is spelled with a "y" and not an "i," as it would be in the word "ladies."
