Ar-ee-ah

lunabear1 · 18/10/2017 23:20

Ar-ree-aa

Valeriemalorie · 18/10/2017 23:21

Are ree ah was my initial thought but it could also be
A ree ah or A ree a like Maria

SuperBeagle · 18/10/2017 23:21

Ah-ree-ah.

Like the Aria in Pretty Little Liars.

ferrier · 18/10/2017 23:23

There's only one way to pronounce it and that is as like the song from an opera so Are-ree-uh

DiegoMadonna · 19/10/2017 00:36

AH-ree-uh

Ionarocks · 19/10/2017 01:11

The only one I 'know' is from Pretty Little Liars so I would pronounce it the way she does- 'Are-ree-a'.

Nonameyet1 · 19/10/2017 07:02

TonicAndTonic · 19/10/2017 13:39

AH-ree-uh

Frazzled2207 · 19/10/2017 14:10

Only one way
Ah-ree-uh. Emphasis on first ah.

MadisonAvenue · 19/10/2017 14:11

Arry-ah

Pinky333777 · 19/10/2017 14:26

Phonetically I'd imagine x

AmysTiara · 19/10/2017 14:30

TisMeTheLadFromTheBar · 19/10/2017 14:33

A ree a?

stellarfox · 20/10/2017 22:16

The Aria from Pretty little liars is Ar-ree-ah but the Arya from Game of Thrones is more like arry-ah in a northern accent.

Tealdeal747 · 20/10/2017 22:37

Are- EE- ah

daisypond · 21/10/2017 10:12

It's in the dictionary, as it's a word, not just a name. So, standard British pronunciation is ˈɑːrɪə - AH-ree-uh. American pronunciation has a variety of pronunciations.
