How Do You Spell RONTGIN?
Pronunciation: [ɹˈɒntd͡ʒɪn] (IPA) 
The spelling of the word "rontgin" may seem unfamiliar, but it is an alternative spelling for "Roentgen," which is the last name of the German physicist who discovered X-rays. The correct pronunciation is /ˈrɛntɡən/. The phonetic transcription shows that the "oe" is pronounced as an "e" sound, and the "ng" ending requires the speaker to pronounce both "n" and "g" sounds separately. While "Roentgen" is the more commonly used spelling, "rontgin" is occasionally found in scientific or medical texts.
