The word "milree" is an uncommon spelling variant of the word "miliary", which is derived from the Latin word "milium" meaning "millet seed". The correct pronunciation of this word is /ˈmɪlɪərɪ/, with the stress on the second syllable. The first syllable is pronounced like "mil" as in "milk", followed by "ee-uh" and ending with "ree" like in the word "three". This word refers to a medical condition in which small, rice-like nodules form on the skin, lungs or other organs.
