Well we've always pronounced the "I" in Idelette I as in Idle, but it occurs to me that if there are actually some Frenchmen or Belgians on the board who haven't yet added me to their ignore list that I should check with them to make sure. Being originally from England, I tend to pronounce everything wrong, I still say "Toe-mah-to" and "Al-you-min-yum" and "Nuke-lee-ar" for instance.

I have however finally figured out a few words, for instance I now say "Sked-yule" like all normal people instead of "shed-yule."

"See-Goon"


I don't know if it's the right pronounciation but it's how I prononce it :

Thanks for recording that Straffo, I figured I was getting it wrong. Believe it or not you have just changed the way our family will address one the children. Now when my wife uses her daughter's middle name when she's angry, it will be with the patented Straffo pronounciation.
