How do you pronounce "Blaser"?
My dad has a hunting configured Blaser R93 in the shop right now, and he says it's pronounced like "Blauser" (and has an Austrian friend of his who agrees) while I though it was pronounced like "Blay-zer". What is the proper pronounciation?
|
Blaser is from Germany, so it must be "Blauser".
|
Blay-zer. If it were Blauser, it'd be spelled Blauser, but with an umlaut over the "U"
|
i've always heard it pronounced like it looks blay-zer, not blouse-er...

I say Blay-zer, and I agree that if it were Blau-ser, it would be spelled as such.

Being German, I would say it`s pronounced Blah-ser.
Blay-ser would have been my guess if the company was english or american. |

I've always said "blay-zer", but I suspect "blah-ser" is technically correct. I wouldn't worry about it too much - when I worked at Cabelas it was the rare customer that didn't call Leupold "Leopold" or say they wanted ammo for their "7 M-M". That last one really kills me - we're metric for god's sakes.
