How Do You Spell THE HOLY OIL SICK?
Pronunciation: [ðə hˈə͡ʊli ˈɔ͡ɪl sˈɪk] (IPA) 
The spelling of "the holy oil sick" may confuse those unfamiliar with IPA phonetic transcription. The correct spelling is "the holy oil syringe," with the sounds /sɪrɪndʒ/ indicating the syringe's cylindrical shape. The word "holy" is pronounced with an aspirated /h/ sound, while "oil" has a long /ɔɪ/ diphthong. The final word, "syringe," is spelled with the voiced dental fricative /ð/ followed by the /ʒ/ sound, denoting the needle's sharp point. Proper spelling is essential in communicating accurately.
