How Do You Spell TURPID?
Pronunciation: [tˈɜːpɪd] (IPA) 
The word "turpid" is spelled with a "p" rather than a "b", even though it may sound like the latter when spoken. The IPA phonetic transcription of the word is /ˈtɜrpɪd/ which shows that the second letter is a voiceless bilabial plosive sound, rather than a voiced bilabial fricative sound that would be indicated by the letter "b". It is important to note the correct spelling of words to avoid confusion and to ensure effective communication.
