Okay, but despite that fact, and everybody throwing in their two cents, we should take the local pronunciation.
I've heard every bloody UK citizen call it either {los.Angelis} or {los.Anjelis}, so we can't take it from how -everybody- pronounces it.
The midwesterner that posted eir opinion on the pronunciation didn't even hit the mark close on the local pronunciation.
The NorCal person got it probably the closest. It is, in SoCal dialect (local to the actual city of Los Angeles), it is said [lɒ'sændʒəlɪs].
I double-checked to make sure I was using the right IPA, and several sources agree with me in regards to the proper pronunciation.
So, I guess either {las.anjylys}, {los.anxeles}, or {elei}.
Also, as a side note, I speak RP English, and I just have to say something to the brito/non-Americans out
there, from one to another.
For the love of GOD, stop saying {los.anjyliiiiiiiiis} because it's bloody well annoying and offencive that you would so butcher the name of something like that well after you've been corrected (read: {yREgyNO} not {OriGAno} for oregano, comPUTER and not COMputer [for some of the brito out there]).
As a side note for the Americans, I've lived here for close to half of my life, and in various parts.
It's {cejul} not {skedjuyl} for schedule, and it's {tiusdi} or {tiusdei} (depending on your level of posh) and not {tuzdei}.
One more reason to hate the language.
IMHO just say {los.anxeles} and don't be a tit, because everybody will know what it means, from the scholarliest scholar to the dumbest nitwit.
