So what your saying for words like say Zebra should be pronounced Zed-e-bra?

No, it should be zebh-rah. 

Americans pronounce the letter 'a' as 'ay'...........right? You say "a-llow" and not "ay-llow"............or am I wrong there?

Zed.
That's the proper way, and it sounds so much cooler.

You Americans honestly say Nissan 350 Zee and BMW Zee4? That's just lame.

I pronounce it as it's pronounced in Australia: "zed". We also say zebra so that it rhymes with Debra. When I'm talking about that godawful show my little brother used to like, I say, "Dragon Ball Zed". Regarding that band with two tremendous beards and a drummer with the surname Beard, most people say, "Zee-Zee-Top" as they recognise it's an imported word. If I'm trying to make a point, I might say "Zed-Zed-Top".

We also say too-mah-toe, not too-may-toe. Shed-yule, not sked-yule. I could go on.



Zed?

Wow that's bizarre.  Zee for me!
