How are women to pronounce the word; Modeh or Modah?[1]

There are those[2] who say that women should say “Modah” rather than Modeh. Practically one should follow the custom of their community.[3]

[1] Likutei Sichos 24:410

[2] In Halichos Shlomo [2 footnote 17] Rav SZ”A is brought to rule that women are to say Modah and not Modeh.

[3] Seemingly this refers to the sect of Jewry that one is affiliated with and not ones living community.
