Montblanc Pronunciation

[ColRam425]

I feel pretty dumb asking this but how is Montblanc pronounced? I've always said it the way it looks, but I hear people say "mon blan" without pronouncing the last consonants. Is this just an issue of accent or personal preference, or have I been wrongly pronouncing the t and c my whole life?

In French those are silent.

Sounds more like "mon blong". It's French, so saying it as it looks in English won't work.

Agreed. "Monblong" is correct and say it as a 2 syllable single word instead of two single syllable separate words.

And do try and act pompous and persnickety when that word proceeds forth from your lips. Kind of like you have a really bad case of bleeding raw hemorrhoids with a fierce forty second fart forming in your nether regions and you KNOW it's gonna hurt when that sucker cuts loose! That makes it seem like you know of what you speak when you say "monblong"! Indeed!

Guys!!!! !!!!! Attention!!! This is easy!!!!

When you say "Montblanc" within a crowd of astute and well educated colleges just .... ... . . . . . ...... ....... FAAAARRRRRRTTTTT a loooooooooong fart at the same instant you start to pronounce that sterling word!

You cannot lose!!!

Either your will be esteemed for your exquisite, pained, gubernatorial, annunciation of the word or everyone will run and not care how you said whatever you said after you said it!!!! Simple wisdom!

MONBLONGGGG............grunt!

Then take out that fine writing instrument, insert it in your nether regions, and take a selfie! Send it to us and we will post it all over the earth on every social network known to man. You will LIVE FOREVER!!!! !!! Yes you will!

And I believe that Montblancs do come with a nice "polishing" cloth with their higher "end" pens. You can wipe with it and you are very good in every regard! No itching and the pen is as good as new.
