  1. I know this must sound like a really stupid question, but i've heard people say it several different ways (I live in Vermont, people pronounce everything strange), so any response would be appreciated.

    Thanks, Matt

  2. "oh-vur-priced". Oh wait, you actually want to know. :p

    I say it "col-nah-go". I guess you could say it that way with a faux Italian accent too.

    What other way is there, the middle syllable being a short "a" sound?

    On a related note, is the "W" in "Wilier Triestina" a "vee
    -sound or a "w"-sound?

    I say "Col-nay-go". That's the another way to say it ;-)
    "Col-nar-go" seems just as common...
