Pronunciation: [sˈə͡ʊd͡ʒə] (IPA) 
The word "Sojer" can be confusing, as it is often spelled differently than it sounds. The correct pronunciation of "Sojer" is /ˈsoʊdʒər/ with a soft "j" sound, and the spelling of the word comes from the French word "soldat". In English, the "d" sound in "soldat" was eventually dropped, leading to the "Sojer" spelling. Despite the irregularity of the spelling, "Sojer" is an accepted alternative to "soldier" in some dialects and cultures.
The word "Sojer" is a colloquial variation of the word "Soldier". Its etymology can be traced to Middle English and Old French.
The term "Soldier" originated from the Middle English word "soudiour" or "souldiour", which came from the Old French word "soudier" or "soudoier". This Old French term referred to a person who received payment or wages in exchange for military service.
The Old French word "soudier" was derived from the Late Latin word "solidarius", which meant "a soldier who receives pay". The Latin term "solidarius" was formed from "soldum", meaning "pay" or "money".
Over time, the word "soudier" in Old French gradually transformed into "soldier" in English, which has remained in use until today.
