Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Fweh-tay is the French way to say it, but I've also heard other teachers say it Fo-ett-ay!. The correct way to say it is fweh-tay but people will know what you mean if you say fo-ett or fo-ett-ay!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

the way I say it is like

F WHAT AY

tHAT'S THE WAY EVERYONE SAYS IT AT OUR STUDIO (srry for the caps) however you want to say it is up to you though!. you could try asking your dance tecahers or soemthing like that if you aren't sure! hope this helps!Www@QuestionHome@Com

The original French is pronounced fweh-tay!. Fo-ett-ay is an American adaptation of the word!.

Hope that helped, keep dancing!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

I guess either way is right, but I most commonly hear it pronounced "fweh-tay" and I personally think that's correct!. (my dance teacher pronounces it "fweh-tay")Www@QuestionHome@Com
