pronouncing "Pake"
 

is it pake, like rhymes with rake or is it pah-kay? I've seen it written with an accent mark over the "e".

it's actually Par-Kay...like Sade is actually Shar-Day...it's origin is in sub-Saharan Africa...

on the site under the logo it says "pa-kay"

PAH! (kay) its the m***********g catilina wine cooler

pah-kay

Pookie

I "pronounce" it (although I've never needed to say it out loud) pah-kay.

Also I always thought Sade (the artist) was shah-day.

poo-poo.

I say pake.

It's Japanese, so Pah-kay.

It's pronounced "****-anchor"

i just say p-ache

Pake, to rhyme with rake. Just to irritate people who own Pah-Kay's

Do it right or dont do it at all!

This is the correct pronunciation and meaning (excluding entry 3 of course).

I live in Hawaii and would feel a little uncomfortable about riding a bike around that had this word pasted on it just as I might feel uncomfortable riding a bike on the mainland that was adorned with a racial slur commonly used over there. I think the bike company meant to stress the idea of frugality which is part of the meaning of this word.

When you buy one, they whisper the correct pronunciation in your ear.

This is the best answer so far.
