alpinerain · 06/10/2021 20:53

Tah-lee-uh

Roonilwazlib1 · 06/10/2021 20:53

Like tally-ah

As someone with a rhotic accent the 'rs' are upsetting my brain! I would say ta (like 'ta for the cuppa) lee a. Honestly, even knowing that non-rhotic speakers put 'r's in when trying to signify a long vowel, I still don't 'hear' the differences in those pronunciations. They both have long vowels.

There’s no R it’s Ta- lee- ah

Missmissmiiiiiiiiisss · 06/10/2021 20:55

Tar-lee-uh

Missmissmiiiiiiiiisss · 06/10/2021 20:56

I would imagine in the south it would be tar-lee-uh and in the midlands/North Ta-lee-ah

Blubells · 06/10/2021 20:58

How can there be an R?!

It's not Tar-lia. Its Tah-lia.

user1000000000009 · 06/10/2021 20:58

Tah lee ah

imamearcat · 06/10/2021 20:59

I know a Talia she's Ta-lee-ah

TwinsandTrifle · 06/10/2021 20:59

Tar Lee Ya

That's how the Talia I know says her name.

Blubells · 06/10/2021 20:59

Would you say Tah-lee-uh or tar-lee-uh?

The first one. Tah Lee ah. Emphasis on the first syllable.

There's no R Confused

Clarice99 · 06/10/2021 21:00

Where's the 'R' in Talia? Is the R a regional accent thing?

It's Ta-Lee-Ah

Tal45 · 06/10/2021 21:02

The ones I know are Tah-lee-ah.

DuchessAnnogovia · 06/10/2021 21:04

I'd pronounce it Ta-Lee-ah. It's very similar to my dogs name Taliesin (which is pronounced Ta-lee-eh-sin

TwinsandTrifle · 06/10/2021 21:04

The R in Talia is the same as the R in Bali.

Extragherkinsplease · 06/10/2021 21:05

Tag-lee-uh

Extragherkinsplease · 06/10/2021 21:05

Tah-lee-uh* not tag 😂

ShuddaBeenMe · 06/10/2021 21:06

Tar lee ah
