that said: a = ah/aw e = like in hay or canadian eh i = ee (like English "e" lol) o = oh u = oo so yeah, BAY-TAH is how I would pronounce it. But really if you speak English you don't really need to worry about how to pronounce crap cause it's such a weird language :p EDIT: I can see how someone might pronounce it beh-tah, but who pronouces it bee-tah? o.O | ||
