How Do You Spell NERS?
Pronunciation: [nˈɜːz] (IPA) 
The spelling of the word "NERS" can be a bit confusing. When pronounced, the word sounds like "NURS" with a silent "e." However, the "e" is necessary in the spelling to indicate that the "r" is pronounced with a non-rhotic "r" sound. This means that the "r" is not pronounced as it would be in a word like "run," but rather it is pronounced with a slight "uh" sound. So, despite the unusual spelling, "NERS" is simply the phonetic spelling of the word "nurse."
