How Do You Spell YAGYA?
"Yagya" is a Sanskrit word commonly used in Hindu rituals that refer to a sacrificial fire ritual. The spelling of this word can be a bit tricky to those unfamiliar with the language as it follows the Devanagari script. In IPA phonetic transcription, the word would be pronounced as /ˈjæɡjə/. The "y" at the beginning is pronounced as a "yuh" sound, while the "g" is pronounced like a soft "j". The second "y" in the word, however, is pronounced as a standard "y" sound.
