Ma Lise as a personal reference and Mona Lisa as a masterpiece's title are French equivalents of the Italian phrase Mona Lisa. The respective pronunciations of the feminine singular possessive adjective and proper noun -- which references the painting by the world-respected genius Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci (April 15, 1452 - May 2, 1519) and translates as "My Lisa" -- will be "ma leeze" in French and "MO-na LEE-sa" in French and Italian.
