[Jngrbrdman]

I've always pronounced it like "Classy" as in "you are a classy person"

[William420]

I just pronounce it " CLASS ".

[cvcaelen]

It's German , wright?

then you would pronounce it Klasse,
like classroom , without the room but an "eh" like the second "e" in gentel

Class-eh

but I may verry well be wrong

How did you find this out? Just curious

You mean KLAH-SEE like santa "KLAH"s + I "SEE" you?

[bretfraz]

I prefer "klah-zey". Or "klahhz-eh". Depends on where you put the emphasis, before or after the Z.

I honestly don't think it's "class" or "classy". Those just don't work with European accents.

Say the word while doing your best Col. Klink imitation and you'll be close.
