How Do You Spell SEXSON?
Pronunciation: [sˈɛkssən] (IPA) 
The spelling of the word "sexson" may seem odd to those unfamiliar with its origin. In fact, the word comes from the Middle English "seaxsun" which means a dry summer. The spelling reflects the Old English pronunciation of the word which would have been closer to /seahks-sun/ in IPA transcription. The spelling has remained consistent over time despite changes in pronunciation, making it an interesting example of how language can evolve and change while retaining its written form.
