Mallari is a word that can be tricky to spell, as it contains sounds that aren't very common in English. Its first syllable is pronounced /məl/, with a short 'u' sound and an unstressed 'a'. The second syllable is pronounced /ɑːri/, with a long 'a' and a stress on the second-to-last syllable. The combination of the 'a' and 'r' sounds can be difficult to hear for English speakers, but it's helpful to remember that in IPA spelling, the symbol 'ɑː' represents the long 'a' sound that's used in this word.
