    Never heard them pronounced any other way than RAH-MEN .

    Kids in our area also like to eat them RAH, opps, I mean RAW (meaning uncooked)

    RAH men here.

    Pronunciation: RAH-min OR RAH-mane

    Ray-men is also correct according to a Japanese friend and dictionary.com

    What?? Japanese vowels absolutely require the pronunciation "rah-men." Maybe your Japanese friend just means that she accepts "ray-men" as an American pronunciation.

    Stef, you are making me hungry.

    In Korea we say "Rah Myun". I'd better go to the Japan Town, and order a bowl of ramen. I'll ask one of Japanese how to pronounce it.
