Do you say it like "pehr-less" or "pearls"?
Or do you just say "overpriced"? (only joking, their haberdashery is worth every penny)

Why in the world would you say it like that?

Hey, I can pronounce "frick YOU"!
And I'm not a Philistine, as I was not born in Philadelphia...

I just say "gay". Much easier to pronounce apparently

Per-Lis
but like Rubenstein's or Goldberg's when I went there as a child I almost always heard it pronounced as it was possessive.
So Per-Lis-es
