But when you said it's the thing over the bed, I pronounce that mo-bile! So weird! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-say#post-209946 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 11:25:48 +0000 lovehoneybee 209946@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The word "mobile"? (As in, the thing that hangs in the nursery about the crib or changing table). </p> <p>I'd never had a reason to say it out loud before, and when I did, my husband gave me a funny look and told me I was saying it wrong. </p> <p>How do you pronounce it?</p> <p>ETA: I pronounced it "Mo-BEEL" and DH insisted it was supposed to be pronounced "Mo-BULL" </p>
