Asking about the spelling and the pronunciation of a word
Good afternoon.
If you'd like the students to say how a word must be written and how it must be pronounced, could you say or write the word and ask the following:
'What's particular about it?' ?
Thank you.

Id be explicit.
eg
Ho do you form the past participle of the verb 'try'?
How do you pronounce it?

But being explicit, as Clive suggests, is a better idea.
