Pronunciation: [tɹˈa͡ɪ fˈa͡ɪnd] (IPA) 
The correct spelling of the phrase "try find" is actually "try to find." This is because "to" is a necessary part of the infinitive form of the verb "find," which is the form of the verb that shows no particular person or tense. To phonetically transcribe "try to find" using the International Phonetic Alphabet, it would be [traɪ tə faɪnd], with stress on the first syllable of "try" and the second syllable of "find."
"Try find" is a phrase that combines both the verb "try" and the verb "find" to express the act of attempting to locate or discover something. It implies an effort or attempt to seek out information, objects, or individuals.
The word "try" is derived from the Old French word "trier" meaning "to sift" or "to separate." It denotes the act of making an endeavor or putting forth an effort to achieve a specific outcome. In the context of "try find," "try" emphasizes the intention or desire to find something.
On the other hand, "find" originates from the Old English word "findan," meaning "to come upon" or "to discover." It refers to the act of locating or encountering something that was previously unknown, hidden, or sought after.
When combined, "try find" indicates an active attempt to locate or discover something through investigation, exploration, or search. It suggests a determination to uncover or retrieve something by making an effort or taking actions aimed at achieving the objective of finding.
The phrase "try find" can be used in various contexts, such as trying to find a misplaced item, trying to find information on a specific topic, or trying to find a solution to a problem. It conveys the idea of making a deliberate attempt to search for or obtain something that may require time, effort, or perseverance.
The word "try find" is not a stand-alone term; rather, it consists of two words, "try" and "find", which have their own distinct etymologies:
1. Try: The word "try" comes from the Old French word "trier", meaning "to choose, sift, or select". It derived from the Latin word "tritare", meaning "to thresh or wear out", from the root "terere", meaning "to rub". "Try" has evolved to mean attempting or endeavoring to do something, indicating an effort made towards a specific goal.
2. Find: The word "find" is derived from the Old English word "findan", which means "to come across or discover". It also has roots in the Proto-Germanic word "finthanan", of the same meaning.
