French here, we say Paris.
You’re welcome guys, call me anytime for more French pronunciation.
I can confirm, we say Paris.
this makes me wonder if deaf people who read the captions on TV understand accents/pronunciation or if they just smile-and-nod
I don’t know, man. I watch a Parisian streamer ocasionally and he says Pah-ree all the time.
Is there a woosh community?
Yup that’s what I said 😎
Without joking, yes the S is silent so if we try to think with English language accent it could be written Pah-ree. Pah without pronouncing the H, more like how you say papa.
And RI is, well yeah, ree. But with a French R, the one that is difficult to master as this sound does not exist in English.
Than yo Skun
The s being silent is one thing but I find English speakers mostly struggle with getting the vowels and combinations anywhere close, even here I read this “pah” and I’m like “no way even 1/10th of them get that A right”, or indeed the “ri”.
Ah, the city everyone in France hates
Signed: Bordeaux
I thought it was the Parisians you hated rather than the city.
The Parisians are mostly people from all over the country that came there to work though.
Adding signature from Nantes
It’ll be quicker to round up the cities that won’t sign… Paris. That’s it that’s the list.
I try to roll my r’s.
But it always comes out like a gutteral r instead, like I’m choking on it.Pa 💦gh💦 ee
Why would you roll? French only has the gutteral r
Naw, I pronounce it like I’m Yiddish. Idky I just can’t get my tongue to do that.
To listen to the difference in how québécois and Parisian pronounce 'r’s is kinda wild
It’s actually pronounced Pah-Wraith
…ye prophets, i want to smack vedek winn every time i see her f*cking face…
#notmykai
mon enfant
I also feel that way when I properly pronounce Mon’rree-all
Even that n is suspect. Surprise French silent letters be like
Moh-reh-aal
There are no rules for the names of places. Most places prefixed by “mont” will have a silent t, but I live near a place called Montrichard and the t must be pronounced
This is more like it
We don’t say the N or the T
- Canadian
Mor re al is how I would write it but yours is probably better for pronouncing
tbh, the n isn’t silent in french, it serves to make the /ɔ̃/ sound (it’s kind of a nasally O) with the “on” digraph
(adressed at anyone reading) btw, does the /ɔ̃/ sound even exist in english? i can’t find any example of it…
I mean, no letters are really silent, they affect the pronunciation of adjacent letters.
I’d say you don’t pronounce the ‘n’ like an ‘n’, making it silentish, and it affects the adjacent ‘o’, giving it a more gutteral sound.
Now if only I could roll an ‘r’ instead of gurgle it
handeare commonly silent in French.
The way the quizzical “huh” is sometimes pronounced is close perhaps? I don’t know if I’d call that an English word though.
It’s more like mon-ray-ahl.
Nawlins
I feel dirty pronouncing De-twah
pro tip: make no one happy by pronouncing it “mount-reel”
When I’m speaking English I pronounce it Paris.
Lorsque je parle français je le prononce Paris.
AND riposte GG noob get worse internet
Do you think Justin Bieber sprays his DNA all over the ladies when he’s in Paris, France?
This will always come into mind when I here pah-ree France lol.
