[Opinions] to both Jade Diana and Faelivrin
in reply to a message by Faelivrin
@ Faelivrin: You're correct, zhon-vee-EV is the French pronunciation.
@ Jade Diana: Hmm, I'm from New England, and I've never heard it pronounced the French way here. We usually say jenna-veev.

1. I have trouble typing that sound. Its awkward.
2. I have heard it both ways, I just feel like it would be easier to get away with doing that up here than in the south, except for maybe near New Orleans, because hearing things in French pronounced with a southern accent drives me bonkers. (well, southern accents do in general but that is a whole other can of worms)
