How do you pronounce "tremolo"?

trem- uh - lo

 

The interesting thing about written english is that in different words the sound 'uh' has been represented by each of the different vowels (a, e, i , o, u). Crazy, nes pa?

Well, that "uh" you're talking about is actually the ultra-top-secret "schwa" vowel. Can't find it on my keyboard though.

 

You're also seeing the power of regional dialect in action. Depending on where you grew up, live now, etc etc, you may actually not hear a difference between "pen" and "pin."

 

(Or "cot" and "caught," or "Mary," "marry," and "merry," or...)

 

But for the record, it's: TREM- ' -lo. :)
