How Do You Spell RECEIVED?

Pronunciation: [ɹɪsˈiːvd] (IPA)

The word "received" is spelled with the letters R-E-C-E-I-V-E-D. The correct pronunciation is /rɪˈsiːvd/. The letter combination 'ei' represents a long vowel sound in this word, which can be confusing for some English learners since the same sound can also be spelled with the letter combination 'ie' (e.g. believe). However, in words borrowed from French (like "received"), the 'ei' spelling is more common. So, remember to use 'ei' when you want the long 'ee' sound, like in "received."
