Okay, based on a convo I just had with [livejournal.com profile] grypx...


How do you pronounce Sarah? It happens to be my name. I thought it was just a standard, normal pronunciation, but apparently not.


I have always heard it (my whole life and referring to anyone else with the name) as sair-uh - the first syllable rhyming with hair.



You?

I'm pretty sure that's the only way I've heard it. But some of these other comments have slightly confused me b/c I can't hear what they are spelling.

And I've never heard a different pronunciation for Sara.

It's like the different between the Kara pronunciations.

car-uh or care-uh
sar-uh or sare-uh

hmm...I've never heard sar-uh, but I guess that makes sense since you can do Kara that way.

The sar-uh Sara I know, her mother immigrated from Columbia. So it might be the way it's said in Spanish or Columbian Spanish... I'm not sure.
