Do you pronounce ‘massacre’ like massa-kree or massa-ker ?

second one, because it's the same as in german.

Thought so too, that’s how I’ve always said it but I just heard someone say « massa-kree » on Mad Men last night.

I mean, how do you pronounce theatre... you do not pronounce it thea-tree, right?
Tillie
Oh hm, interesting. So the reorder with the letters at least for theatre comes via france to britain. https://imgs.plurk.com/QEE/h9R/3AVg3QgejG4jaflwHN4y6RRHAuX_lg.png

I thought maybe it was one of those regional things where some words are pronounced differently in some parts like ‘water’
Lils
And I just learnt that it’s ma-si-ker
