    I usually end up up pronouncing it something like "WHEE-luh-vert."

    It's actually French for "Greeneye". Pronounce it as oy-verr (pronounce the 'verr' as you would when saying 'very') with a slight roll on the tongue.

    Do NOT pronounce the T.
    I prefer the term "Treasure Hunter".

    Thanks Spike. Now we all know the truth, so I can close down the polls.

    Looks like I can't close them. I started the poll, so I thought I could. If any moderators see this, close it for me. No sense in voting now that we know the answer.
