Question

Anyone know how to pronounce "hotelbetriesgesellshaft" (German word)?

Answer 1

Ho - tel - be- triebs- ge-sell - schaft

pronounced this way kind of:

Ho- tell- beh- treebs- ga- zall- shaft

Answer 2

It's writen with a b in between, and I'll try to explain:

"hotel" is a familiar word in ENglish, but in German, it's rather pronocounced like "Ho-tell", with the "Ho" like in "Ho Chi Minh".

"Betrieb" means a company; it's pronounced like "bay-treeb", with the stress on "bay".

The s is a connecting consonant, and is pronunced like s.

"Gesellschaft" means company, it's pronounced like "g*y-sell-shaft", with the stress on "sell".

Putting it together, we have a

"ho-'tell-bay-treebs-g*y-'sell-shaft"

(Apostrophes indicate stress on syllables)

Answer 3

I will try for you.

Ho tell bee trys geh sell shaaft

I hope you can understand those phonetics.

Answer 4

I agree with Priscilla.

Say

Ho-tell-bay-treebs-ga-zall-shaft

Answer 5

It is pronounced

ho-tel-be(as in bed)-tree(try saying tree with the hard German r)-bz-ge-zell-shaft.

But it is spelt Hotelbetriebsgesellschaft.
