Re: Sylvain

Well, I'd say it more like sil-VAHN because I've heard it in French before. Although honestly if I were just talking in my own accent I'd be more likely to say sil-VAYN. I'd probably still put the accent on the second syllable though... but maybe that isn't how everybody would say it.

I would say it this way too, with emphasis on the second syllable.
