kombolcha Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 1. more stress is put on the second "S" making sound like a "Z" 2. the second "S" sounds is pronounced like the first. some ugly visitor lady gave me a verbal beating about pronouncing her name.. she said she'd never heard it said so "awful" :unsure: not like i give a ****.. but now i'm curious as to how everyone else pronounces that name.

metallithrax Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 1. more stress is put on the second "S" making sound like a "Z"2. the second "S" sounds is pronounced like the first. some ugly visitor lady gave me a verbal beating about pronouncing her name.. she said she'd never heard it said so "awful" :unsure: not like i give a ****.. but now i'm curious as to how everyone else pronounces that name. The second 'S' is pronounced like a 'Z'. And does it matter if the lady was ugly or not. Or is this some 'hip' saying that I don't know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sensayshun Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 I blur it all into one long mumble, you wouldn't be able to tell which of the above I said :p But if i slow it down it's kind of Su-Zen as said above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rootwiler Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 I am Canadian and I say it "Su - SEN" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nexess Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Probably Su-zen, seeing as its not "Suzanne" to do the Su-Zan. Pronunciation for me depends on how comfortable I am with the person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Derf Veteran Posted March 22, 2006 Veteran Share Posted March 22, 2006 (edited) I am Canadian and I say it "Su - SEN" That's what I would say too but I didn't see it listed. Edit: Oh, it was listed (it looked weird when I read it) The "zed" sound would only come into play for Suzette or Suzanne.
