How Do You Spell DELAPSATION?
Pronunciation: [dɪlɐpsˈe͡ɪʃən] (IPA) 
"Delapsation" is an incorrect spelling of the word "dilapidation", which means the state of disrepair or decay. The IPA phonetic transcription for "dilapidation" is /dɪˌlæpɪˈdeɪʃən/. The word is spelled with a "di-" prefix, followed by "lapidation" which comes from the Latin word "lapis" meaning "stone". This is reflected in the "la-" spelling in the word. "Delapsation" is likely a result of confusion with the word "collapse".
