How Do You Spell REGALE?

Pronunciation: [ɹɪɡˈe͡ɪl] (IPA)

Regale is spelled with a hard 'g' sound (IPA: /rɪˈɡeɪl/) rather than a soft 'g' found in words like 'germ' or 'giant.' This means that the 'g' is pronounced like a 'k', creating a distinct sound in the word. The spelling of 'regale' suggests its Latin origins, as it is related to the Latin verb 'regalare' which means 'to entertain' or 'to give royal pleasures.' The spelling of 'regale' thus reflects its origins as a word associated with grandeur and luxury.
