But if it's a French place, they'll pronounce it wrong.
There's no right way to pronounce french
Wulle wu kuschee awek mwa?
How do you think we pronounce DeQuindre? Dee-kin-der. How about Livernois? Just add an e at the end and you'll figure it out. Too our credit we somehow pronounce Cadeiux correctly.
Fortier pronounced "Forty-er" as in "my fort is more fort-like(fort-y) than your fort".
Ohio: Versailles (locally pronounced vur-sales)
Utah: Monticello (Italian, but locally pronounced “monta sell-oh”)
Indiana pronounces their Monticello the same way
Same in PA, but they get Duquesne right.
They pronounce it like its French but it turns out to be Spanish
I grew up near Calais, Barre, and Charlotte, and none of them are pronounced how you'd think.
