The spelling of the word "worsham" may seem confusing, but it can be easily explained using the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA). The first syllable is pronounced as "wɔːr", which uses the vowel "ɔː" to indicate the sound of the "aw" diphthong. The second syllable is pronounced as "ʃəm", using the consonant cluster "ʃ" for the "sh" sound and the reduced vowel "ə" for the sound in the second syllable of "sofa". Together, these sounds give us the word "worsham".
