How Do You Spell BALLINGGUN?
Pronunciation: [bˌalɪŋɡˈʌn] (IPA) 
The spelling of the word "Ballinggun," pronounced /ˈbælɪŋɡʌn/, can be a bit confusing at first glance. The word is actually a compound of two words: "balling" and "gun." The first part, "balling," means to fertilize livestock using a solid ball of nutrients, while the second part, "gun," refers to a tool that sprays or shoots material. So "Ballinggun" means a fertilizing tool that sprays solid balls of nutrients onto crops or livestock. Despite its unconventional spelling, the word is easy to understand once its etymology is broken down.
