How Do You Spell PAIDE?
Pronunciation: [pˈe͡ɪd] (IPA) 
The spelling of the word "paide" is quite tricky. The word is pronounced as /peɪd/ in IPA transcription, which reflects the fact that it is a two-syllable word with the emphasis placed on the first syllable. The spelling "paide" may lead one to believe that the word is pronounced with a long 'i' sound as in "paid", but this is not the case. Rather, it is pronounced with a long 'a' sound as in "date". It is important to remember this distinction to avoid any confusion or miscommunication.
