"Partee" is a curious spelling of the word party. Its origin lies in American English, and the spelling is pronounced as /pɑrˈti/, following the phonetic transcription of the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA). The use of two "e's" in the spelling is an attempt to derive the sound of the letter "y" in party. Despite its quirky spelling, "partee" remains mostly uncommon and seldom used, with the standard spelling of "party" being widely accepted and utilized globally.
