But anyway, since they dropped the accent & tilde, it is no longer a Spanish word. No the I is e as you say but the accent on the á puts the emphasis on the a sound ba like bah, the letter ñ is pronounced including the y sound 'enyay'. Ee bah nyeth.

Can you imagine the puzzled look on the shop assistants face if you asked to check out their selection of Eebanyeth and Squee-er basses? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a joke, hence the smiley. I'm a big fan of Yamaha, my number two bass is my Bex4, absolutely amazing bass for very little money, and if I sold all my basses and had to choose one bass for life it would be a 2024x in vintage white. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darkandrew Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 One of my kids at school was telling me about his "huey" graphics tablet today - I just nodded and went with it. It was only later that I realised that what he was probably talking about was his "huawei" graphics tablet, which I've always pronounced "how-why". How do you pronounce it?
