Help[Opinions] Re: Laurier
in reply to a message by sambchop
Laurier is the Dutch word for 'laurel' (low-RHEER), so for me it's hard to find this rhymey for Théodore. I guess it's not bad, but it feels a little off. I wouldn't be sure how to say it in English though. LO-ree-ər? LO-reer? lo-REER?

I pronounce it the French way. It means "laurel" in French too. :-) In French, we say lor-ee-AY.
