How Do You Spell SKOLNICK?
Pronunciation: [skˈɒlnɪk] (IPA) 
The spelling of the word "skolnick" is rather unique and requires a bit of explanation. In IPA phonetic transcription, it is written as /ˈskɒlnɪk/. The "sk" at the beginning is a common cluster of consonants in English. The "o" represents the short "o" sound, as in "hot."

Finally, the "ck" at the end indicates the hard "k" sound.
