SwimModSponges Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Phonetic pronunciation of the word "spiel". Swear to god, always thought it was spelled "shpiel," but then I type it out and it tells me I'm wrong. Google the word, and there it is- no H. And the first pronunciation is /spēl. So now I'm wondering if its a regional thing or something. So that's my spiel, I guess. Whatchu got? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwimModSponges Posted August 23, 2021 Author Share Posted August 23, 2021 Sorry, I just typed the incorrect spelling into youtube and that's what popped up . Apparently it's yiddish, which makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real_AirCooledGirl Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 "Shpeel" all the way. Taught myself some German a long time ago. I'm nowhere near fluent, though, and what I do know is pretty rusty by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could've sworn I remember my music teacher pronouncing it glockenSHpiel, but my memory may be wrong, as it has been a long while.
