The spelling of the word "squaked" can be explained using IPA phonetic transcription. The first syllable "squa" is pronounced as /skwɑː/, where "s" makes the /sk/ sound, followed by the vowel sound /ɑː/.

The term "squaked" is not found in most standard dictionaries as it is often considered a colloquial or regional variation of the word "squawked." However, if we were to define "squaked," it would be understood as the past tense of the verb "squak" (alternative spelling: "squawk").
"Squawk," in itself, is a verb that refers to the act of emitting a harsh, shrill, or piercing cry or sound. It is typically associated with birds or similar creatures. This noise is often characterized by its loud and raucous nature, resembling a combination of a scream and a high-pitched scream or cry. The term can also be used metaphorically to describe a person's complaint, protest, or loud vocalization of discontent or dissatisfaction.
Therefore, "squaked" would be used to describe the action of emitting such a harsh, piercing, or raucous cry or sound in the past tense. For example, "The seagull squaked loudly as it swooped down to snatch a fish from the water," or "The protestors squaked their disapproval and demands during the rally."
While "squaked" may not be the most commonly used variant of the word "squawked," it could be understood in the context of the verb "squawk" with its accepted definition of emitting a loud, piercing cry or sound.
