How do you pronunciate word "Lineage" ?

[Lain]

Sooo, I'm exited how do to pronunciate word "Lineage" because:

 

- One side told me, that pronunciation of Lineage is typical pronunciation as [Layneyj]

- Second side told me, that special exception and it should be pronounced as [lineyj] or [Lyneyj]

 

The difference is about "LI" and "LAY". I'm just interrested.

 

I'm pronunciate it as the first, [Layneyj].

I used microsoft speech engine... and "Microsoft sam" said like 1st option. :D

I am likeeeee Line <== the real pronounce of the word and Age<== like Iron-Age   ( 1456 Year) and btw

when u enter the game and starting a character the women (PC-women) who is talking she pronounce the second way

[Lain]

So that means the second way is corrent? Damn but why so many people are pronouncing this as LineAge and not as LiNage.

[malakaso0]

the correct version to pronounciate it is LINIEIJ - like the real word itself, check wikipedia for its meaning if u want to :P
