I've heard it pronouced different ways and was wondering how you pronounce it, or what the correct pronunciation would be.

1. Gu-CHEE-SEE-ma (long E sound on the gucci and sima parts)

2. Gu-ches-suh-ma (short e sound on both the gucci and ima parts)

3. Gu-CHEES-ima (long E sound on gucci and short e sound on ima)

4. or some other way???

I've always pronounced it like #1. An SA at Nordy's pronounces it like #2 and super fast.
 
^My SA at the Gucci boutique pronounces it #3 and fast LOL. I switch the way I say it depending on which SA I'm dealing with but I do it #1 kind of fast in my head when I read it.
 
I pronounce it the first way but I don't think it's right.

Yup ditto, but then I hear other SA's say it differently and then stumble when we're in conversation trying to spit it out the "right" way. Whatever way that is.

This is my first poll - not sure if I set it up right. Did you guys have an option to choose?
 
:lolots:

This thread is making me laugh.

I'm trying to say each way out loud and think about which way I say coz I can't remember. Good thing there is no one else about today

My Italian SA, who is head of handbags puts the emphasis on GU and then the rest faster and my other SA, who is Polish says 'the Gucci stamped leather' :sneaky:

I think I might chicken out too and say stamped leather sometimes but I would chose to follow my Itallian SA's pronunciation if need be.
