What is the correct way to pronounce yerba mate? |
Is it pronounced yerba matea or matay?
Additional Details
@ Chris D, that is exactly the way my argentinean friends pronounce it and that is the way I do, but a sales rep kept correcting me and saying "matay" and I said "matee" just wanted to be sure there was a difference. American, Argentinean or whatever. |

A is pronounced similarly to the "a" in "father" or the "o" in "loft." Examples: madre, ambos, mapa. There are some speakers who sometimes pronounce the a something halfway between the "a" in "father" and the "a" in "mat," but in most areas the first sound given is standard.
E is generally pronounced like the "e" in "met" when it is at the beginning or within a word. It is pronounced similarly to the Canadian "eh," kind of a shortened version of the "é" in the English "café," when it is at the end of the word. Sometimes it can be somewhere between those two sounds. It's not quite the sound of the English letter "A," which if pronounced slowly often has an "ee" sound at the end, but closer to the "e" of "met." Keep in mind that even when it's at the end of the word, in a sentence it may sound more like the "e" of met. For example, in a phrase such as de vez en cuando, each e has approximately the same sound. Examples: café, compadre, embarcar, enero.
Also you can hear the pronunciation at www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/yerba mate |
