How Do You Spell DEGIACOMO?

Pronunciation: [dɪd͡ʒˌɪɐkˈə͡ʊmə͡ʊ] (IPA)

"Degiacomo" may seem like a tricky word to spell, but with the help of IPA phonetic transcription, it becomes clear. The first syllable is pronounced "deh-gi" with a short "e" sound and a hard "g" sound. The second syllable is "a-koh-moh" with a long "o" sound and a silent "h". The stress is on the third from the last syllable, "a". So, phonetically, it would be transcribed as /dɛdʒiˈækəmoʊ/. With practice and familiarity, spelling "degiacomo" correctly will become second nature.
