Every time I come across it, I never remember the pronunciation.
Who actually knows how to pronounce, Nebuchadnezzar?

Oh, yeah, I attended Bible School for 12 years. I know who he is. He just isn't someone I gossip about on a regular basis, y'know?

I thought everyone knew how to pronounce the name.
Learned the name as child and as part of a rhyme whenever doing anything repetitious ...
Bolo-Paddle, juggling, jumping rope etc
Nebuchadnezzar, King of the Jews
Bought his wife a pair of shoes;
When the shoes began to wear
Nebuchadnezzar began to swear
When the swearing had to stop
Nebuchadnezzar bought a shop
When the shop began to sell
Nebuchadnezzar bought a bell
When the bell began to ring
Nebuchadnezzar began to sing:
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall (etc.)

I attended as well. I graduated after 3 years! (just kidding, no offense) I went for 3 years then my parents moved and found another church. I was beyond redemption at the age of 12............
I'm much better now.

I can't. I've never even heard this. But I can pronounce "Pfeffernusse" as in the cookies.

Are the licorice/annis flavored? I've heard of them, but I don't like licorice.

Easy peasy. Just think of it by it's syllables. The letter d in Nebuchadnezzar is all but silent, so if you remember it as Nebaca Nezza you will have cracked it.

Yes, those are the ones. I love licorice. Also since my mother was German, that's how I know the pronunciation.

My father loved annis tea. Oh well to each their own, I prefer Irish breakfast tea with mulling spice.
