I always said it Co-pleen (the same "ee" as in spleen) with verbal accent on "Co"-
Có-pleen

Two nonsensical questions for late Friday night, concerning coplin jars. We
got into a discussion about it this week, but I forgot to get onto Histonet
Friday morning in time for the Friday trivia (though the CSI thread was
good).
1. How do most people say "coplin"?
- Cope lynn
- Cop lynn
We have people pronouncing it differently. Training difference? Difference
in dialect? You say toe-may-toe, I say toe-mah-toe?
Which brought us to question #2:
2. Who (maybe what) is Coplin/coplin? What nationality? That might make a
difference in how the name should be pronounced. I've been looking for the
origin/inventor/whatever, and I can't find anything.
Thanks in advance.
