Phil Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 As in MUHLT-EYE or MUHL-IH? For me it's Muhl-IH based on the fact it's derived from the Latin term of multi, which gave us "multiply", "multiple", etc. I've never heard anyone say "If you [muhlt-EYE-ply] two and two you get four" or "Two is a [muhlt-EYE-pull] of one". So which is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted August 1, 2012 Author Share Posted August 1, 2012 It depends on how you use it in a sentence. That's true, because you also have words like "multi-millionare" and "multiplayer", etc. that'd make it "Muhl-tee". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revolution Rock Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 MUL-TEE. But even that way, I've heard pronounced differently. People either say MOAL-Tee or MUHL-Tee. eh. tomato tomahtoh I supposed. Kind of like when people pronounce height and subconsciously put an "h" sound at the end. HEIGTHHHH. Drives me crazy.

Respecttheblue Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Jagr pronounces it "Mullet" consistently. When I lived in the UK it was always "multy" as in multee. here i say "mull-tye" more often as in mull-t-eye-nash'nal you know, multinational. ^ I like word more now, since it has Nash in it. It's a multi-faceted word, multi is...but in that context, Multeeee ... ummm, same way i used to pronounce vITaminz with an "it" rather than vye-taminz with an eye. lol this is fun. Margaritas were off the charts tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
