Le Cellier Pronunciation?
I know this is a silly question, but French is not one of the languages I know. Is it pronounced Le Cell-ee-air or Cell-ee-ay? Thanks!

I belive it is pronounced more like Lay-Celli-A or maybe Lay-Seli-A. The R should be silent.

I pronounce it as lay sell yay, but then I speak French with a German accent.

Thanks for the responses. Originally I thought the R was silent, but the last time I called for reservations, the girl said Le Cell-ee-air. I wasn't convinced, though.

The r is silent. If I remember my high school french correctly, anytime that r is proceeded by ie then the r is silent. Our last name is french but that doesn't mean I speak the language by any means. Our last name ends in ier

Luh-cell-ee-ay (If it were Les Celliers, then it would be Lay-cell-ee-ay.
 )

Yes my CM kept repeating it with the R over and over again too. She was like "oh you mean Le Cell LeaR"? She must be so annoyed from hearing pronounced "wrong" day in and day out...lol
