[edit] Pronunciation

The IPA pronunciation is given as /ˈklæts kɪ ˌniː/; however, if /ni:/ is understood to sound like the English word knee, it is wrong. The correct IPA pronunciation should be /ˈklæts kɪ ˌnaiː/, so that the last syllable sounds like nigh.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.131.227.32 (talk • contribs) 15:59, June 26, 2006

How about signing what you say (having respect for the talk page guidelines) and telling us where you got this from? Alamar2000 03:43, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
How about being a little less snarky to the newbies? Katr67 17:00, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

Hi - I live just outside of Clatskanie and the above poster is correct: the locals pronounce it /ˈklæts kɪ ˌnaiː/ —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.34.137.138 (talk) 00:40, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

I can't make heads or tails of IPA, but I've (native Oregonian with a great aunt who lived there) always heard it pronounced something like Klats-kih-nigh. However, it appears the pronunciation in the article was corrected in December 2006. Is it still wrong? If so be bold and fix it. Katr67 17:00, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
