French people, how do you pronounce Th茅r猫se?

And would "Tess" be a proper nickname?

Tair-race is a phonetic pronunciation and Tess is a proper nickname. So is Terri

tre-sa and yes

(tee-ree-sa)

Th茅r猫se

it's the french version of Theresa

There-ess is basically what it would sound like in an american accent

The "h" is silent and the first e is pronounced as an a long a sound. It should come out as "Tay-rese"

Teh Rez (teh- e sounds like "a" in pay) (rez- rhymes with "pez")
It's the french version of Teresa or Theresa.

These are tricky questions, as it is pronounced as 'Th茅r猫se'...but phonetically there are many ways you could interpret it, also depending on your origins. Another possibility would be tear-rez (as in tear a piece of paper).

There are 2 syllables in this. The "th" would be pronounced as a "t" in this case. You would put more emphasis on the second syllable. You would say the first syllable, but then say the second syllable with more emphasis.

The first syllable would be pronounced like the "ta" - in the word tame. Or - if you know how to pronounce tea in french "the".

The second syllable would be pronounced similar to the word rest - but with without the "t" in it. So "res". On the second syllable you would be stressing the "r" sound. The french have a more guttural r than anglophones. More air comes in contact with the back of the mouth - it almost sounds like spitting when they do their r's.

So: tay - res.
