Okay, maybe this is a silly question, but what is the right way to prounounce "Iseki"?

I keep saying it like "i-see key". They guy I bought it from called it an "i-sack-a".

How is it really said?

what you should say is "at that price, Isickee, give me a better deal.

Having said that I have no idea if the price is good, ok or other, it is just a line for a dealer.

Depends on where you live
In the south it's Ah-sack-ee
In the north its eye-seck-ee
I would think the closest's pronounciation to correct would be as it is spelled.
I-seck-e with the emphasis on "I".
Occasionally I here the first i pronounced as an e.
e-seck-e
It may be easier to call them in Japan an ask. It'll be the second word after they pick up. The first one is "hello"
No matter how you say it, mine is a dam fine tractor.
(For what I paid for it anyway)

Over here (in Australia), our local Iseki dealer pronounces it "eye-seeky". He's a Malaysian guy who says he worked (origionally) for the manufacturer.
Just my 2c...

:) I think a lot of the different variations that we see on this thread are actually the same. We just have different ways of typing it.
