    Us military slaves put the accent on the first syllabil. Loo-(as in the name Louis)-ten-ant.

    My lack of experience doesn't allow me to argue against that, but whenever I say the word in casual speech the second syllable seems to be most stressed to me. I'll believe you, though.

    Anyways, let's go spam the Pope thread now.

    About the Lieutenant thing, the French pronunciation stresses on the first syllab, since, more often than not, the second syllab is told to get lost and vanishes. Which gives, for you silly English speaking people something non writable using English sounds. [] is right, though.

    I'm glad this thread has turned into a nice spam thread.

    No, really.

    Why wasn't this just closed and forgotten?
