How Do You Spell PARADES?

Pronunciation: [pəɹˈe͡ɪdz] (IPA)

The word "parades" is spelled with a "d" at the end, but it's pronounced with a "z" sound instead. This is because of the phonetic principles of final consonant devoicing, which often occurs in English language. In IPA phonetic transcription, the spelling of "parades" is /pəˈreɪdz/, with the final "s" represented by the symbol /z/. This pronunciation is different from its singular form "parade", which is spelled with a final "d" sound and pronounced as /pəˈreɪd/.
