The spelling of the word "MILAASPEM" may seem confusing at first glance, but it can be broken down using the International Phonetic Alphabet. The correct pronunciation is /mɪ'laːspɛm/, with emphasis on the second syllable. The initial "M" is followed by a short "I" sound, a long "A," and then "ASP," which is pronounced like the word "aspen." The final syllable, "PEM," is pronounced with a short "E" sound and a soft "M." While the spelling may be difficult, understanding the phonetic breakdown can make it easier to pronounce correctly.
