Vernis = Ver-nee
(the "ver" sound is the same as "very", not "laverne")

L'Aimable = Lay-MOB (hint of an "L" at end)
Instead of MOB, it's an "Lay-mm-ahb" with the "L" at the end

I'm french. Sorry.

Who knows? I learned real quick that that's the way Houston St. in NYC is pronounced too! Apparently it's the correct way. For example- In Kentucky we have a city named Versailles. Do we pronounce it Vers-eye? Nope, in good old KY it's Ver-sales. Oh yeah...
