How to pronounce Häkke?
I know there are two pronunciations (German and Dutch I think).
How do you say it? Also, can a German or Dutch tell me which way I'm pronouncing it?
I say "Heckah".
Edit: So I looked it up on Google Translate (something I should have done at first) and it has told me that the word is actually Finnish, but there are pronunciations for it in Dutch and German that ARE different. Here we go.
Finnish and Dutch: "Ha-Kay"
German: "Ha-kuh"
No idea where I got "Heckah" from lol. I think I heard DeeJ say that once. I'll probably end up saying it the German way since I have roots in Germany! Yay for edumacation.
Edit 2: So some Germans have commented and said that they do NOT say "Ha-kuh". They say it's hard to explain. So I'm going to explore the internets for a little while to see what I can dig up on the German pronunciation!

DeeJ isn't Scandinavian nor German, so of course his pronounciation is "englishified".

Edited by Artesians: 9/14/2015 9:43:15 PMÄ umlaut has differing pronunciation depending on the German state you come from. I say "Heck-a." I have 4 years of German under me if that means anything. An umlaut is a distinct characteristic of German, but does show up in other languages as well.
