Neutrois... Pronunciation Anyone?

[Guest GKay]

Does anyone know how to pronounce the word "neutrois"? I came out to my sister the other day and we got caught up on how this word is actually pronounced. I've heard about a dozen variations on it. Any ideas?

I don't know, but while attempting to look it up on google I found this topic that might help.

Very good question hon

Apparently, there doesn't seem to be a difinitive pronunciation. Based on the spelling, the majority pronounces it neutroy based on the french suffix "trois"

Don't know if this helped.

Heh well I don't feel so bad then if no one really knows. I suppose on the off chance that I ever run into someone on the street who actually knows what it means we can debate it then.

[Guest Sam_P]

Most people I know pronounce it 'new-troy' but being that that's in the UK there may be a discrepancy there anyway in terms of the majority.

[Guest mad_scientist]

I always thought that it was pronounced just like neuter.

Which, come to think of it, could get confusing.

Hahahahahahaha. I might take that pronunciation just for the sake of seeing the reactions I'd get.

I don't feel so bad or arkward anymore!

Do we have anybody on the forums who identify with neutois who could enlighten us prehaps?

Thought it went something like neu-troy-es.

I personally pronounce it "new-twa", twa like the pronunciation of the French number trois.

[Guest Ryles_D]

I go with new-trois (like troys, only softer)for singular and plural. If I wanted to go the french way, I'd have to pronounce the entire word french. I think that's more Nuh-twah

Any way is acceptable, really.

Tha's pretty much how I always heard it in my mind. Never actually said it before. . .

[Guest Miss_Construe]

I actually think is is a little more subtle in the french 'three' ending (neutral + trois = neutroi --> newTraw)

of course when in doubt I would just pronounce it 'awesome' as in 'I'm awesome' 'cause lets face it, you all are.

YEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!
