How Do You Spell PORTIONED?

Pronunciation: [pˈɔːʃənd] (IPA)

The word "portioned" is spelled with the letter "i" after the letter "t" instead of an "e," which might be expected. The IPA phonetic transcription of this word is /ˈpɔːʃənd/, where the "sh" sound is represented by the letters "ti."

Therefore, even though the spelling may seem strange at first glance, it is actually a reflection of the word's history and origin.
