Help[Opinions] Re: Reine?
in reply to a message by Hannah Ruth
I don't like it because 'reine' in French is not really pronounced like how Ren is said in English. I would love Wren though.

how is it pronounced?
i was under the impression 'e' was pronounced like the 'e' in 'bed', hence 'ren'. just like Seine is pronounced 'sen'.

Yeah it's the r that sounds different, it's a very French throaty R.
