Cop-er-lah or Cope-or-lah?


For her Dad as well obviously.

Which is it? Can anyone cite an interview in which either say their own name?

There is no "R" in Coppola. Oh wait you must be British or Aussie ;-)

Hmmm i dont get it, when its copp-o-la.

The only thing is (if you use Italian accent) the aspirated/pushed "O" in the middle and the last "a" (very aspirated this time), almost a "CO'po-Laa..".

Hard to explain finally (source: Italian family, Italian language as French and Español).

I have to agree with you here. No R. Both o's are long. Accent on the "Co".
