How is Dinan Pronounced?

Park2670 · 02-01-2008, 06:30 PM

When the Dinan Rep came out to visit us at the dealership here he said DIE-nen.

die nin?

Neema · 02-01-2008, 07:49 PM

I've always said Die-Nen. I've also always said Heart-Ga for Hartge.....since I heard a representative for the actual company say it that way. So I laugh when I hear people say Di-nen, or Heartige, Heartgee, or whatever hahah........its just plain and simple, Heart-Ga

i've just seen him in a commercial and he introduced himself as "hi, i'm steve die-nan"

i was also pronouncing it dee-nan prior to that.

Hartge is actually pronounced as Haat-Ga.

Actually, I think Boost is right with the Hartge pronunciation.

"Heart-guh".
