How is "Prima" pronounced?

[soah]

Prime-uh?
Preem-uh?
Something else?

[Shoe]

I say "Preem-uh", but I have never heard VVP say it so I don't know how it is supposed to be pronounced. .

Preem-uh

OK good, this was my initial thought as well but I've always had some voice in the back of my head telling me I was wrong.

I assumed preema-uh as well.



When I worked in radio I moved to a new town (Pt. St. Lucie, Florida) and was asked to do the voice-over on a spot for the St. Lucie Ale House located on 'Prima Vista Bouleavrd.'


since there was no phoenetical pronounciation on the copy I just assumed it was pronounced 'Preem-uh Vees-tuh' (not sure why I assumed this....that's just what I thought it would be for whatever reason).

I later had to go back and re-do the spot saying the locally correct 'Primm-uh Viss-tuh'.

[soah]

Preem-uh Veest-uh would be the correct Spanish pronunciation.

Is it close? No.

Pree - myrrh, but fluent as in preemer.

Comprenez?
