ArchivesRe: Pronunciation of Adelais?
in reply to a message by nomadia
It's not an umlaut, it's a diaeresis. Sorry for that.
The French have their own way of pronouncing 'e's inbetween two consonants. Usually, they don't pronounce it or do so very faintly. And the -ais sound is pronounced like the 'e' in 'bed'.

No worries! I'd rather be corrected for calling something the wrong name than to continue to do it oblivious to my mistake.
Thank you so much. I'd been wondering about the pronunciation for a while. :)
