Versailles Pronunciation

Ash is right. That's about as close as you can get to pronouncing it right.
Of course, we can't tell you EXACTLY how to pronounce it. The French speak mainly from their throat, especially the "r" is a sound that comes from the throat.

It's french so you pronunce it ("Verr-Sai"). There happens to be a city in Ohio name Versailles, but they pronounce it ("Verr-sales"). Interesting, huh?

I think it's better if you hear it for yourself. Choose French and type the name, the pronunciation is the right one. The female voice (Juliette) speaks slower so is more easily understood.
