How Do You Pronounce Betta?

[Gold-Fisher]

I have heard people calling them Bey-ta in some videos mainly American accented people, to me its always been Bett-a, whats the correct pronunciation.

[Gold-Fisher]

I meant Bay-ta, incase people are thinking Bey-ta is Bee-ta.

oops, then Im saying it wrong. I always say bee-ta

It's Bett-a . The e and t's are pronuonced in a short sharp fashion, not drawn out or elongated when you say them.

If it was meant to be pronounced Bay-ta or Bee-ta as many Americans do, then the spelling of the word would be Beta as the greek word.

You must be feeling foolish with the wrong pronuinciation that you have been using all along, therefore the defensive posturing.

i say bay-ta and i don't care

i also say pla-tee -as in the word plan not play-ty!

 

[Honeythorn]

Bay-ta is incorrect ( not that it really matters anyway )

Pla-tee is the correct pronounciation. Play-tee is not.
