The correct pronunciation is 'Zell-it'. actually, its derived from the word "zeal" which is rhymes with "eel" and "feel". but you're right on the other stuff | ||

zel as in Zelda + lut as in "hut with a L instead of an H" That's how I say it, and I'm almost 100% sure that's the way it's said. EDIT: well maddux is probably right. It's probably my NorthWestern accept or something.  So I changed it. | ||

Nevertheless, pronunciations can be fluid. Just consider the many differences between British and American pronunciation. | ||
