What does this even mean? You’ve given no indication of how you pronounce it other than adding a hyphen (we already know it has 2 syllables). Which syllable do you accent? Is the “e” a short-e or long-e sound? How do you pronounce the ”i”? |

Levin = LEV-in (like "eleven" without the first syllable)
Levine = Leh-VEEN |

You're right, you don't know what it means. A "long e" sound is "ee" not "e", which is SHORT! Perhaps english isn't your first language? |

I agree with you about LEV -in. I know more Leh -VINEs than Leh-VEENs though. |
