Re: Marseille!--How is it Pronounced?

As in Gdansk/Danzig, you mean? Or a lot of other examples in Eastern Europe? I'm afraid that statement doesn't seem to stand up.

However, no matter how the city Marseilles is pronounced, this is not necessarily a guide to the pronounciation of the name Marseille. I understood it was pronounced Mar-sy-le, but cannot claim that as definitive.
