How Do You Spell CRITERIAS?

Pronunciation: [kɹa͡ɪtˈi͡əɹɪəz] (IPA)

The correct form of the word is "criteria", and it is commonly misspelled as "criterias". The reason for this is that the singular form is "criterion", which ends in "-ion". However, when we make it plural, we drop the "-on" and add "-a". Therefore, the phonetic transcription of "criteria" is /kraɪˈtɪərɪə/, with stress on the second syllable. Remember, "criteria" is already plural - there is no need to add an "s"!
