If you understand french (being in Canada) you ll say it like {mieu ll nir} en roll the "r" use eu if the o is an actual "ö" or the if it is a "o" you can pronounce it like "ou" or the oo in good.

Only words you need in Scandinavian is..."Bajer, nu" and "fisse"

Like Belgar said, exactly. The "o" is like the "u" in "purse" or the "e" in "person" for us Canadians.The "eer" thing has to do with saying it in modern Swedish, kind of like how some say Oden rather than Odin. Odin and Mjoellnir is the correct way to say the words in Icelandic and Old Norse, whereas the Oden and Mjoellner version is the current Swedish pronounciation. The "o" is supposed to be an "Umlaut", like in German, and the "i" is an i if you prefer it,or an e if you'd rather.

A vot' service cher ami ...... phonetic is easy, using the word or at least trying to pronounce it correctly is another story ......

I have always said, and heard it pronounced like this: m'yull'ner

So is it -NEER or -NER?

 

[Tyra]

-NER if you want it in Swedish, -IR for the Old Norse or Icelandic (more common) way.
