[edit] Pronunciation
Does anyone have any pronunciation advice for this article? Sandover 03:47, 14 May 2005 (UTC)
- I've always heard her name pronounced cat-AIR-ee teck-ah-KWEETH-ah, but that's not official. MamaGeek (talk/contrib) 01:59, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
- Her first name is a Mohawk rendering of Katherine, thus the anglicized accent should come on the first, NOT second, syllable: KA-tir-ee (many people mispronounce it by accenting the 2nd syllable). A more native pronunciation would not place accent on any syllable: ka-tah-ree. LotR 14:14, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
