How do you pronounce "Envelope"?

-Ahn-vel-ope or...
-En-va-lope

Just curious...I say the latter.

I believe it can be pronounced both ways; Im just curious to see which one people prefer.

I use both, actually. I use the latter more often than the former though.

En-Vel-Ope

How can you possibly pronounce it any other way?

It depends where you are from really. Here in England both pronounciations are common.

En-vel-lope or On-vel-lope. Some people do say Ahn-vel-lope too.
