♛“Pssssst: that’s not the only thing about him that’s a mouthful.”
Alright *shoves Lestat aside* to answer your question: How to pronounce Louis de Pointe du Lac: you’re lucky I took French in high school which has been EVER so useful to me in my adult life. NOT.
Louis: “Loo-wee”, with less emphasis on the “wee” part.
de: “dih,” means “from” in French.
Pointe: “Pwan” with almost no emphasis on the “n,” means “tip.”
du: “due,” means “of.”
Lac: “Lack,” means, “lake.”
BRING IT ALL TOGETHER! Emphasis on Pointe and Lac bc of reasons.
“Loo-wee dih Pwan due
Lack,” “Louis from the tip of the lake.”
This has been your French lesson.
With the blessing of i-want-my-ivtv (praise be to you Uncle Lestan!) and one
shoulder left (sword-mishandling during a blessing happens a lot more than you
can imagine), here’s a
little tutorial on how to pronounce Louis’ name.
Warning: strong French accent incoming.
IT GOT BETTER. your French accent is impeccable. PARFAIT JUSTE PARFAIT. am I gonna need to coerce you into pronouncing more stuff properly in French hmmmmm?… also you pronounced Lestat the way I prefer, too, none of this weird Germanic “Les-DOT” crap Mater tries to get us to do.
