I’m not sure which it’s supposed to be, per this reading. Is it similar to the “g” as used in “great” or as in “refrigerator” or as in “cough” (or a different sound which I didn’t think of)? This particular American read it initially as in “great”, for what it’s worth. From other comments it sounds like that’s intended if it’s supposed to sound like “fogey”.
- q7xvh97o2pDhNrh 4y agoThat's just it — it's none of those! Off the top of my head, the only American English sound I can think of that'd come close would be the Americanized pronunciation of "Ghent," as demonstrated in this random YouTube video I found: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meuBUq3K3XY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meuBUq3K3XY So take the "Gh" sound from "Ghent" in that video, and then tack on a long e — and there's your ghee.
