There is a slight stress to the second syllable, but not as strong as stresses are usually in English. The t is only pronounced in French if the succeding word begins with a vowel or h, (e.g. "Le bliaut est rouge": le blee - o tay roozh), and in English would be disregarded completely. This however does not answer how it was Anglicised, and this will partly depend on when it came into English from French. My guess is that it would have been early enough for the final t to be pronounced, with the au vowel sound either being o as in go or o as in got. That help? :) [[User:Conrad Leviston|Conrad Leviston]] 13:30, 8 Jun 2006 (EST)</div></td> </tr> </table>
