HelpRe: How do you pronounce?
in reply to a message by Kristina
How many times has this question been asked.
I have no idea why it's so hard, but the original pronunciation is Air-ah-bell-ah, but I've found many Americans/North Americans accented people(and some around my parts) assume it is Are-ah-bell-ah when they read it. So annoying.
I really wish more people would ask though before assuming, so they would say it wrong. It's so pretty when pronounced correctly.
