How do you (English Speakers) pronounce "Stein"?

"Stein" is a German name which sometimes appears combined with other words, f.e. "Goldstein".

It's a name that exists in the US too.

Recently I had a dispute with two friends about how "Stein" is pronounced by native English speakers. Now I ask you.

Thank you in advance.

Update:

Yay. I was right. Thank you again.

Update 2:

By the way; if you are interested: Germans pronounce it "Shtine".

    I am curious to grasp the place all people is from, i do not consider I've EVER heard an American (making use of day-to-day speech) pronounce the primary syllable as if it rhymes with car, nor have I heard the full CUE sound within the third syllable. Correctly, I think that the only vowel we mainly hear is the quick i within the second syllable. All of the leisure are schwa (or "swallowed") p'r TIK ky' l'r p' TIK ky' l'r IPA: pɚ ˈtɪokay yə lɚ _______________________________________... I believe that in the OP's native language, the ch sound may be just like German "loch" or probably "ich"

    not only germans,

    did you forget about Einstein

    who do you think all people are pronouncing it

    just the way you wrote it "shtine"

    I do not think anyone is pronouncing it other way

    do you know the name Lisa Goldstein? (you just suggested "stein")

    it is from german and so adopted like it is

    like , do you have any choice of pronouncing "sauerkraut" or "doppleganger"

    that's the way, they just are NOT english, so they are pronounced like in its original language

    St-eye-n. That's my way, but I know that some in Britain say it as 'st-ee-n'. 'St-eye-n' is how the Germans say it - it is a German word meaning 'stone' or 'rock'.

    So the answer is that Britons of different sorts say it in both ways. I don't know anything about how it is said in the USA.

    Quelle(n): Southern Briton.
