    Close. It's mah-sah-myoon-ay.

    Nope.

    I guess its open to interpretation. The way I've been taught to read english (the way everyone is taught to read english), is that the e is silent in this instance.

    If your reading it in a different language, then I'm sure it could be different. In english, the e is definitely silent.

    Therefore, more like mah-sah-myoon or mass-a-myoon
