Real Sociedad is a proper noun referring to a Spanish football club, often treated as a compound name. In pronunciation guides, it is vocalized as two words: /reɪˈɑːl soʊ-si.eˈdad/ in some Anglophone contexts, but in Spanish-influenced usage it is closer to /reˈal soˈsi.eˌdad/. It is not a verb in correct usage; when used in English, it remains a proper noun and should be capitalized. The phrase carries regional prestige and should be treated as a fixed name in speech.
