[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is confusion about the pronunciation because of the "a" which is obviously a vowel. [b]Typically you would not pronounce the "t" in "pret" but since it's followed by a vowel you make the elision. [/b] [/quote] French person again. Correct.[/quote] So when we shorten it to Pret, should it actually be Pray, with no t? Maybe saying the whole thing is safer after all![/quote] Or you could argue that the shortened form is Pret because that's where people choose to stop in pret/amanzhay Everyone at my office says "Pret," and pronounces the t.[/quote]
