How to pronouce "Peltier"?

[RaiderJ]

I have a presentation next week, and want to make sure I pronouce it right.

pell * tee * yay

Is that right?

Sounds right though I pronounce it pleter (missing the 'i').

 

[SWScorch]

you would be correct, sir. silly french don't know phonetics (which, ironically, isn't spelled how it sounds )

 

[BoomAM]

I pronounce it;
Pelt-tia
But thats just me.
I suppose its more of regional thing, to with accent on how things are pronounced.

According to Merriam Webster:

Pronunciation: 'pel-tE-&r, "pel-tE-'A

 

[RaiderJ]

I was pretty sure it was pronounced that way... but you sure wouldn't know it to look at the word. Definitely a hard one to figure out

That's how I would say it.

I say 'Pehl' 'Tee' 'ayy' where 'ayy' is the soft 'a' sound.

I pronounce it pelt-ear, but then again I've never used one, so just disregard.

yeah, but don't pronounce the "ee" too long. More like *pelt * yay *

Must be the Jersian in me. I say (well never actually said it, but pronounced it in my head when I read it) Pelteer.
