How Do You Spell PRATHER?

Pronunciation: [pɹˈaðə] (IPA)

The spelling of the word "prather" may be confusing for some. It is pronounced as /ˈpræðər/ in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA). The "p" and "r" sounds are pronounced as normal, while the "a" is pronounced as the "a" in "cat" and the "th" is pronounced as a voiceless "th" sound, like in "thin." The final "er" sound is pronounced as a schwa sound, which is the unstressed vowel sound in many English words such as "butter" and "letter."
