How Do You Spell SOUTHERLAND?

Pronunciation: [sˈʌðələnd] (IPA)

The correct spelling of the word "Southerland" is a bit tricky if you rely only on its pronunciation. The word is pronounced as /ˈsʌðərlənd/ in the IPA phonetic transcription, which means it starts with the "s" sound and then involves the "uh" sound, followed by the "th" sound and the "er" sound. However, it is spelled with "ou" instead of "u" to indicate the long "o" sound, and with a single "l" instead of "ll" to indicate that the previous vowel is short.

Etymology of SOUTHERLAND

The word "Southerland" is derived from the Old Norse name "Súðrland", which means "southern land".
