I just got out of a heated argument with one of my friends about the pronounciation of 'Phyrexia'. He didn't give me a different pronounciation, but did say if you look in the English language it is pronounced differently than it typically is. I looked online, but only found the word 'Phyrexia' in French... Plz halp!
Fye-rex-ia
The F sound - the I sound - Rex - the E sound - uh
In IPA it's pronounced [fɜɛksiænn]
I pronounce it fur-ex-e-uh
Llama there definitely shouldn't be j's

A music student? Or just awesome?

You're missing the r I think if I'm not stupid.
1.) J does not equal Sh. [ʃ] does. J is a glide
2.) yes I am a music student

The R is covered in the [ɜ] notation. That means any vowel but [a] followed by a retroflex r

Oh. Cool. Is IPA used in choir music or something?
Yup. We learn lyric ipa diction so that we can essentially read any language
