4, as in 'our Avuh-line'

Hidehi4 · 26/09/2021 21:47

‘Ave ah line which in my accent would say have a line

Ava-lin

Spikeyplants · 26/09/2021 21:42

Av (like have) then e- line.

Same as its spelt. Av-e-line?

AndSoFinally · 26/09/2021 21:41

Avva-Line. Again like the Bread character

Av-ah-lin

Not 'line' at the end.

I love it though, never heard of it before!

satci · 26/09/2021 21:37

Avver line. Kind of like Caroline sound.

trumpisagit · 26/09/2021 21:32

Skysblue · 26/09/2021 21:31

  1. In a Liverpool accent
GemmaRuby · 26/09/2021 21:28

Vaseline was my first thought too.

MonkeyPuddle · 26/09/2021 21:26

Avvie leen.

ISeeTheLight · 26/09/2021 21:26

Ayve-leen.
Sounds like a made up name though. There's a French name Eveline which is pronounced similarly.

foxgoosefinch · 26/09/2021 21:26

I’d want to say it as “avva - lyne”, but might correct myself to “avva - leen.”

GoodnightGrandma · 26/09/2021 21:25

Ava-line

WillaWeatherspoon · 26/09/2021 21:24

Avva lyne

Concestor · 26/09/2021 21:24

Avva-lyne

GU24Mum · 26/09/2021 21:24

Av - leen

That's how the French lady at our office pronounced it (and it was her name!)

MaggieFS · 26/09/2021 21:23

Similar to how you say vaseline, avva-lean

lljkk · 26/09/2021 21:22

Ah (to rhyme with vowel in math)
vuh
Lean

Heruka · 26/09/2021 21:22

Yes avva leen for me too.

FoxgloveSummers · 26/09/2021 21:16

Avva-LEEN, kind of to rhyme with Vaseline
