How Do You Spell STYTHE?

The spelling of the word "stythe" is often questioned due to its unusual combination of letters. However, its pronunciation can be explained using IPA phonetic transcription as /staɪð/. The "s" is pronounced as an unvoiced alveolar fricative, the "t" is pronounced as an unvoiced alveolar stop, the "y" is a glide between the vowels, the "th" is pronounced as a voiceless interdental fricative, and the final "e" indicates a silent "e" at the end of the word.
