The correct spelling for the phrase "sate one hands" is actually "set one's hands." This phrase means to position or place one's hands in a certain way. The "s" sound at the beginning is actually the voiceless "s" sound, which is represented in IPA as /s/. The "ate" sound is not part of the spelling, but rather a mispronunciation. The correct sound is the long "e" sound, represented in IPA as /iː/. So, the correct spelling, using IPA, would be /sɛt wʌnz hændz/.
