The correct spelling of "Sandiford" is a matter of debate. Some sources spell it with an "i" (Sandifird), while others use an "e" (Sandeford). However, both variations are pronounced the same way using the International Phonetic Alphabet as /ˈsændifɔrd/. The stress is on the second syllable (/-di-/), and the final consonant is pronounced as a voiced /d/. Despite variations in spelling, proper pronunciation is essential to avoid confusion and preserve the integrity of the name.
