I guess I have to drop the S sound at the end of it </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-pronounce-aden-anais#post-1079381 Wed, 11 Sep 2013 12:36:01 +0000 lamariniere 1079381@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Interesting. I pronounce it the French way and just confirmed with my French DH. When there are two vowels together in French and the second one has the tréma (two dots above it), you pronounce both vowels. </p> <p>It's a bit more nasal than an English speaker can do, but it is definitely 3 syllables and something like Ah-nay-ees. </p> <p>Side note, one of my favorite author's lover was Anaïs Nin. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-pronounce-aden-anais#post-1079329 Wed, 11 Sep 2013 12:24:32 +0000 banana 1079329@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always pronounced it Ay-den and uh-nays. OOPS </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-pronounce-aden-anais#post-1079224 Wed, 11 Sep 2013 11:55:24 +0000 PurplePeony 1079224@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our French friends have a daughter named Anais and pronounce it "ahna--ees" so that's how I say it, too. Prior to knowing them, I probably would have said "ah-nay." </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-pronounce-aden-anais#post-1079213 Wed, 11 Sep 2013 11:51:55 +0000 BadgerMom 1079213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LazyLightning: Bahahahahaha! I say Ay-den and Anus in my head too (I try to pronounce it A-nay when I say it out loud, but I always read it as Anus)!!!
