How Do You Spell TRANSNATATION?
Pronunciation: [tɹansnatˈe͡ɪʃən] (IPA) 
The spelling of "Transnatation" might be a bit confusing at first sight, but it follows the rules of English orthography. The word is pronounced /trænzˈneɪʃən/ according to the International Phonetic Alphabet. The prefix "trans-" means "across" or "beyond," while the stem "natation" comes from the Latin word "natatio," meaning "swimming."

The spelling reflects the historical roots of the term and its meaning as a compound word.
