Phonetically, say it like lay-zEh leh bAwn taw rOO-leh(y)
The original poster said, "Dialectically (French or Cajun) : "lay-say lay bawn tawmp ru-lay" or "less-say lay bawn tawmp ru-lay" "
I suggest the following improvement:
The final P and S in "temps" are silent. The M is pretty "muffled", too.
It is a distinctly French sound, with few English analogs.
It is more like "TAWm", or the first sound of "Ankh" or "Encore" - without the K.
It is almost an N sound more than an M.
Perhaps we should say, Dialectically (French or Cajun) : "LESS-say lay bawn tawn roo-LAY".
(It means "Let the good times roll")
Leh-seh leh boh taw roo-leh is a French pronunciation of 'Laissez les bons temps rouler'. The imperative 'laissez'means '[you] allow, let'. The plural definite article 'les'means 'the'. The masculine adjective 'bons' means 'good'. The masculine noun 'temps' means 'times'. The infinitive 'rouler' means 'to roll'. All together, the phrase means 'Let the good times roll'.
