s/o jenn barrette
so, how do you pronounce 'barrette?' the hair piece, not the uberly famous digidesigner.
i say 'bar/ett' (with the emphasis on the first syllable) but i know a lot of people say it all funky i've heard 'buh/rett', as well as a few others. how do you say it?

This ^ with emphasis on the "rett" so buhRETT - and I'm from Missouri, so maybe there is something to that.

barhet (like Rhett from Gone with the Wind) or buhhet ((because sometimes bar and buh come out the same depending on the word)) though 9 times out of 10 I just say "hair pretties" lol :P

I say it like Trish does. Either buh or bahhett. Emphasis on the bah syllable. I was born in Texas if that means anything.

buh rhett with a very slight emphasis on the second syllable. I grew up in Connecticut, but I also lived in New York and Massachusetts while I was learning to talk.

Oh I'm different (or maybe just lazy, lol). I mush it together and say brett (one syllable) lol. I think if I thought about it before saying it, I would say it burett, emphasis on the rett, but I'm trying really hard to remember, and I'm really sure I say brett (like the boy's name) lol

For me it is bar-ETTE - definitely second syllable emphasis, and definitely an R in the first syllable.

I was just thinking halfway through this thread that now it feels like barrette is some kind of made-up silly word...you know how that happens when you look at/think about a word for too long? anyway, i THINK i normally say bahhett.
