How Do You Spell PATELEY?

Pronunciation: [pˈe͡ɪtlɪ] (IPA)

The spelling of "pateley" can be tricky due to the unusual combination of sounds in the word. Using IPA phonetic transcription, the correct spelling can be represented as /ˈpeɪtli/. This indicates that the word starts with the sound "pay" represented by the symbol /peɪ/, followed by a soft "t" pronounced as /t/, then the sound "lee" represented by /li/. The final "y" in the spelling is pronounced as a short "i" sound, hence the /ɪ/ symbol.
