adjective!)-- VOL-duh-mort, with a hard "t." Either, I think, is 
perfectly valid.

One thing I thought odd, or interesting at least, is that in
the US audio version on books 1-4, Jimm Dale pernounces it as
VOL-duh-more with no 't', but in OoTP he does pronounce the 't'.
Also in the movies they pronounce the 't'. I wondered if the change
in Dale's pronounciation had anything to do with keeping in line
with the movies?
