The spelling of the word "Morgay" may seem puzzling at first, but it is actually quite straightforward when considering its IPA phonetic transcription /mɔːgeɪ/. This spelling represents the sounds of the English language, with "m" being the initial consonant sound followed by a long vowel "o" and a diphthong "ay", which sounds like "eɪ". Therefore, "Morgay" can be easily pronounced by saying "more-gay" with emphasis on the "gay" ending sound.
