"Sharmyan" is a phonetically spelled word that reflects a sound-based way of writing. In IPA phonetic transcription, it is pronounced as /ʃɑrm.jæn/ and can be broken down into its individual sounds: "sh" (/ʃ/) followed by "ar" (/ɑr/) and "myan" (/mjæn/). The initial "sh" sound represents the voiceless postalveolar fricative, while "ar" refers to the vowel sound of R-controlled /ɑr/. "Myan" combines the consonant sound of "m" with the vowel sound of "ya" and ends with the consonant sound of "n".
