According to what those "Fancy-Food" types (Alton Brown, Sarah Moulton, etc.) say on the Food Channel, it sounds like "cull-ih-nary." Like "skull," then "ih", then "nary," as in: "Nary a one was seen." (On that last nary, 'Ah hain't seed a single Si here in Gawga.' I still ordered a 2007, sight unseen!)
