Pardon my ignorance...

Dan in the Springs : 9/28/2016 7:11 pm

I've heard it pronounced a few different ways now, both by announcers and in press conferences. Can anyone straighten me out?

How should I pronounce Berhe's last name?

I've heard "bare-hee", "burr-hee" as well as "bare-hay" and "burr-hay".

Which is it BBI?

How about Bar

Don't be a jerk.

When I first saw it I thought it was pronounced something like Burr
