The phonetic spellings provided offer different levels of detail and pronunciation emphasis. The International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) transcriptions offer the most precise representation, while the written-out versions provide a more accessible guide for those unfamiliar with IPA. The variations suggest alternative pronunciations that might be used depending on regional accents or personal preferences. Remember that phonetic spelling is inherently subjective and can vary based on individual speech patterns.
