How Do You Spell ALGORITHM?

The spelling of the word "algorithm" can be traced back to the Arabic word "al-Khwarizmi," after the 9th-century Persian mathematician who introduced the concept. In English, the correct pronunciation is "al-guh-rith-uhm" with stress on the second syllable. The initial "a" is pronounced as "uh" and the "r" comes before the "i," contrary to what one might expect. With an IPA phonetic transcription of /ˈælɡərɪðəm/, the word's spelling can be more easily understood and correctly pronounced.
