French people, how do you pronounce Thérèse?

And would "Tess" be a proper nickname?

Tair-race is a phonetic pronunciation and Tess is a proper nickname. So is Terri


Joe L
Teh Rez (teh- e sounds like "a" in pay) (rez- rhymes with "pez")
It's the french version of Teresa or Theresa.

There are 2 syllables in this. The "th" would be pronounced as a "t" in this case. You would put more emphasis on the second syllable. You would say the first syllable, but then say the second syllable with more emphasis.

The first syllable would be pronounced like the "ta" - in the word tame. Or - if you know how to pronounce tea in french "the".

The second syllable would be pronounced similar to the word rest - but with without the "t" in it. So "res". On the second syllable you would be stressing the "r" sound. The french have a more guttural r than anglophones. More air comes in contact with the back of the mouth - it almost sounds like spitting when they do their r's.

So: tay - res.


Your mom
The "h" is silent and the first e is pronounced as an a long a sound. It should come out as "Tay-rese"


Julz
These are tricky questions, as it is pronounced as 'Thérèse'...but phonetically there are many ways you could interpret it, also depending on your origins. Another possibility would be tear-rez (as in tear a piece of paper).
