How Do You Spell FIZZLES?

Pronunciation: [fˈɪzə͡lz] (IPA)

The word "fizzles" is spelled with two Zs, despite the fact that the Z sound is often represented by a single Z in English. This is because the word is pronounced with a double Z sound, which is represented in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) as /zɪzəlz/. The first Z is voiced and the second is voiceless, creating a sizzling sound. The double Z spelling distinguishes the word from similar sounding words, such as "fizzles" versus "fizzles".

FIZZLES Meaning and Definition

    One of the primary definitions of fizzles is related to the sound or action of something losing intensity or failing to achieve its intended effect. In this sense, it refers to something gradually losing energy, excitement, or attractiveness. For example, a party or a social event may start with great energy and enthusiasm, but if it gradually becomes less lively and engaging, it can be said to fizzle out.

    Additionally, "fizzles" can refer to the emission of a fizzing sound or the act of making a fizzing noise. This definition is often associated with the sound produced by effervescence, such as the hissing sound of a carbonated beverage when opened or the sound made by releasing gas from a pressurized container.
