The spelling of the word "Lorra" may seem a bit odd at first glance, but it actually follows the rules of English phonetics. In IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) transcription, "Lorra" would be written as /lɒrə/. This means that the first syllable, "lor", is pronounced with a short vowel sound, similar to the word "lot", and the second syllable, "-ra", is pronounced with an unstressed schwa sound, like the "u" in "but". So while the spelling of "Lorra" may not immediately make sense, its pronunciation can be easily decoded using IPA.
