How do you pronounce Nudibranch?

[Nzomniak]

My friend and I today were discussing the Nudibranch. How do you pronounce Nudibranch?

Is it like Nudie-Branch (like a nudie beach, and the branch on the tree?) or like Nudi-Brank (with a short I, like in "IT" - and then like in New York The Bronx, only without the "S" sound on the X)?

 

[sassyfishy]

I pronounce it:

Noo-di-brank

That is the way I prefer to say it.

new duh brank

I'm pretty sure this is the correct pronunciation. The character used in the "pronunciation" of the dictionary represents a "Duh" sound, not "Dee." IMHO.

Nu-duh-bronk.

It is properly pronounced new duh brank. You could say bronch, but that is more similar to the actual greek pronunciation rather than what is the usual pronunciation.
