Words spelled correct versus phonetic spelling

Wɜrdz spɛld kəˈrɛkt ˈvɜrsəs fəˈnɛtɪkˈspɛlɪŋ

alternately titled fun with phonics

ˈɔltərnətli ˈtaɪtəld fʌn wɪð ˈfɑnɪks

analogous when like first learning how to spell

American English words

Əˈnæləgəs wɛn laɪk fɜrst ˈlɜrnɪŋ haʊ tu

spɛl əˈmɛrəkən ˈɪŋglɪʃ wɜrdz


I thought to feign not knowing how to

spell American English words

 

Aɪ θɔt tu feɪn nɑt ˈnoʊɪŋ haʊ tu spɛl ə

ˈmɛrəkən ˈɪŋglɪʃ wɜrdz

and quickly realized the daunting task,

Ænd ˈkwɪkli ˈriəˌlaɪzd ðə ˈdɔntɪŋ tæsk,

 

thus sought magnanimity, gratuity, courtesy...

Google search (phonetic transcription of words) to assist me.

 

Ðʌs sɔt magnanimity, grəˈtuɪti, ˈkɜrtəsi..

ˈgugəl sɜrʧ (fəˈnɛtɪk ˌtrænˈskrɪpʃən ʌv wɜrdz) tu əˈsɪst mi

Words spelled correct versus phonetic spelling
(the latter appended after poem concludes).

Thus now begins feeble attempt

to render rhyme for no reason

appended with phonetic translation

mainly as playful tease zen

synonymous imagining teaching

said exercise to eager children

reminding readers that young

and restless with spotty attention

hear spoken word while in utero,

post natal, subsequently when

he/she parrots parent(s) and/or

guardian, a more deliberate yen

arises to acquire greater cognition,

intuition, question (quest ja hen)

quickly devolving into faux ken

barbed riotous laughter analogous

trying wits of patient comedian/

comedienne resorting quite often

to repetition, remonstration,

reiteration... which frustration

might necessitate taking ten,

or so minutes of intermission

mindful mentor praises pen

ultimate verbal adroit ability

earning healthy treat for recitation,

perhaps recipient exceptionally

eager to advance passing golden

milestone able, ready, and will len

to tackle writing correct spelling,

whence learning to hold pen(cil)

(without being vain) begin men

till process, which next step den

allows, enables and provides sen

sit heave hands on guidance

helping preschooler - all liven

and well with enthusiasm clutch

writing implement fingers open

before gently grasping above ren

during kudos with an amen.
