If the dictionary were run by bureaucrats...

Is that pronounced something like suh-see-so-see-sah(n)-see-sah(n)-see-soo ??? (and where else could you possibly find such a sausage-fest at such a bargain price?)

That's pretty close. The first word "Ces" is pronounced more like "say" in English.

As for the bargain price, I suppose one could say, Ces six saucissons-ci sont six cent sous, but we're already pushing the envelope on ridiculousness.

I guess it depends on the part of France the speaker is from... the exchange student we had when I was in high school (I don't even remember what part she was from) used a lot of schwa sounds, and I learned "ces" and "les" both as "suh" and "luh.

LOL. They had some similar thing like this on the internet about English becoming Germanized. I like this one too, especially how it looks like gibberish at the end but makes sense.
