Re: Muriel / Mariel and English dialects
in reply to a message by Lumia
I pronounce Mariel MER-ee-el, and I say it pretty quickly. Muriel though I'd pronounce MYUR-ee-el, so they're not quite the same thing. I live in Michigan, so I have a... Michigan accent. Not the same as a midwestern accent. I don't know if everyone else around here would pronounce those the same though.
