The word "raisons" may appear to be misspelled, but it actually represents a valid French word for "reasons." In French, the letter "i" between two vowels often represents a soft "e" sound, which is why "raisins" (meaning "grapes") and "raisons" have different spellings despite sounding similar. To transcribe "raisons" in IPA, we would use /ʁɛ.zɔ̃/, indicating the "r" sound, the "e" sound between two consonants, and the nasal "o" sound.
