[Facts] Re: Question:the pronunciation of "Irene" ?--What is the stress of "Irene" in USA
Then is it different in USA comparing with Britain?
Because Lethe said in Britain the usual pronunciation is EYE-reen with the stress on the first syllable.
So is it true that in U.S. the more common one is /eye-REEN/ with the Stress on the second syllable, and not /EYE-reen/?
