How do you say it?

 

I say "Cuh-RIB-eee-uhn." :P

"Cah-rib-be-in" and very quickly.

Care-ihh-BEE-uhn

cuh-rib-eee-uhn :awesome:

both... though overall I say "Cuh-RIB-eee-uhn"

 

But like for Pirates of Carribean I pronounce it "Care-ihh-BEE-uhn"

i prounce it like the way in the movie title, Pirates of the Carribean :nice:

Was it spelt incorrectly in the movie title, then?:stunned:

Wow, so far it's dead even. I'm surprised.

i had not voted it the poll,

its uneven now :nice:

HOORAY, my option is winning. :nice:

 

EDIT: No, it's not. I read it wrong.

The correct version is winning.:smug:

There's no correct version. It's all a matter of opinion and how you were taught to say it. :wacko: Personally, Care-ihh-bee-uhn is probably more of a European version of the word, like how most Americans say "Prah-gress" instead of "Pro-gress"

 

:uhoh:

Care - uh - be - in

Care - uh - be - in

 

Well done! You chose the correct version too!:P

The real question is:

I'd say it "Care-ihh-BEE-uhn" but my dictionary gives me 2 ways of pronouncing it. :shrug:

THAT.

 

Way to bring up another point. I, in fact, DO say "prah-gress" as opposed to "Pro-gress." :P I also know that people in England pronounce Renaissance "Reh-NAY-sawhnce" as opposed to "REH-neh-zawnce," which is what I was taught. :P

Aha! But if you speak French, you know the correct pronunciation, as it's a French word!:D

I doubt people here in Texas would appreciate me being that technical with my pronounciations. Besides, my French accent is terrible. :P
