How is "Brahe" pronounced, for an English speaker?

Question

As in Tycho.

Answer 1

I think it's "Bray", which rhymes with "Pray".

Answer 2

Americans say tie-ko, though we're told it's really tee-ko. Americans have a need to sound ignorant.  But we're pretty consistent with bra-hay.

My standard line on pronunciations is print is:

"It's pronounced anisotropy."

It's just a joke.  Really only Alex Filippenko is consistently correct on this one.

And of course the reference that fails to make it to print:

You say tomato, i say tomato.

Answer 3

TEE-ko BRA-hay

Answer 4

I've always heard it pronounced BRAH-hee or BRAH-hay.

Answer 5

I've always heard it pronounce Brah-hee.

And Brant, remember when you asked about the "core bounce" example!

Suttii just brought up the name:

Alex Filippenko

He's the one I got the idea from.

Wow...I lost my top contributer status.
