How do you pronounce alencon?

In: English Spelling and Pronunciation, Questions en Francais, French Language and Culture, Grammaire Francaise [Edit categories]

Answer:

It's not easy trying to transcribe the sounds of French into English. Vowel sounds are much more precise than they are in English. Alençon (please note the 'ç' has a hard 's' sound). In French no syllable is stressed more than another one.

AH LEN (nasal en sound) S ON (nasal on sound). It's the name of a town in Lower Normandy.
