As the topic says, how is this pronounced? I pronounce it like Eh-tahn, kind of French, but I'm almost certain this is wrong. Do any of you know the correct way?

I can't help you, but maybe we could have a thread devoted to proper pronunciation of snus-related terms in general.
I wasn't sure whether pris should be said French style (silent S) or not, but found a Swedish language site where I could hear an audio presentation of the word, and apparently the S is pronounced. -
Kinda depends on what language you speak, even for English you might pronounce words in very different ways. But I'll try to describe it anyway.
The E is pronounced kinda like the EA in BREAKFAST.
The TT is a sharp T sound like in COTTON
The A is a short A sound like the first A in CALCUTTA
The N is simply a N sound like in any word, pronounced clearly though
Hope that helped you out somehow. It would sure be easier if I could upload a sound somehow, just don't know how to do itComment

Pris in Swedish rhymes with please.
Ettan sounds similar to at on, spoken as one word, with the 'at' in the style of a British newsreel commentator from the fifties slash friendly Kiwi ('et' like in 'jet'), and the 'on' in a contemporary American style ('a:n'). As if that made any sense at all. :lol:Comment
