I'm glad I'm not the only one, ll while growing up, my brother and I pronounced it like a hand grenade, then one day I was talking to someone and they pronounced it Grene-Deer and I was like WTF? I didn't say anything cause I didn't want to sound like a doofus, but I still call it like I used to, just flows better.

'Gre-nuh-DEER'. It's Engrish, it don't have to make sense.

Of course I know I've mentioned the time I saw a little kid in a store, and he saw an "Annihilator" figure, and he said, "Look, Mom -- Annie Hitler!" 8-O :roll: :-D

Maybe something like:



I always pronounced Iron Grenadier as Iron Grenader. A guy that shoots grenades would be a grenader. Just drop the 'i'.

To pronounce it like it should be Gren-a-deer, it just seems hi-falutin' to me...
