Re: Proper Pronunciation

Sorry its not working. But I've just always called it with the emphasis on the ALE. I posted this because I saw some Youtube videos were they pronounced it ROYAL and I thought it was weird. Guess I pronounce it odd.

Proper Pronunciation

How do you say Isle Royale?

Do you say it Isle Roy-ALE? (with and emphasis on the ALE)

Or Isle Royal? (minus the e)

I personally use the emphasis on the ALE.

Its a shame that we can't manage our wildlife properly and such a beautiful bird goes extinct.
