The spelling of the word "souders" can be explained using the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) as /saʊdərz/. The first syllable is pronounced like "sow" (as in female pig) followed by the diphthong "ow" as in "loud". The last syllable ends with the "ər" sound, which is the "er" sound in "farmer". This unique spelling may cause confusion due to the similarity of the word "solders" which is pronounced differently /sɒldərz/.
