Audio pronunciation?[edit]

Can someone perhaps add an audiofile to the pronunciation? I don't understand the IPA. 81.68.255.36 20:53, 23 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

It sounds approximately like linny-idge. Equinox 22:48, 23 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Issues around pronunciation[edit]

Note there is an alternate form linage. That can't possibly have three syllables, can it, so it can't be the same pron as the /ˈlɪ.ni.ɪdʒ/ given here? Perhaps it's /ˈlaɪn.ɪdʒ/ when talking about the advertising/newspaper sense of a line count, rather than one's family ancestry? Equinox 19:30, 28 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
