I am just clueless on this one. What is the right way to pronounce "Znap"

Is it "Z"-nap, Snap, or do you blend the "Z" into the "nap" for an awkward
word that sounds like snap but with a "z" in place os the "s."

Anyone have the answer?

As you've probably surmised by now, there is no one answer.
But I ran into a gaggle of Lego reps at the Redwood City TRU

it the last way you describe:  `blend the "Z" into the "nap"
for an awkward word that sounds like snap but with a "z"
in place os the "s." '
