Best Answer

"Saint Mary's rapids" is an English equivalent of the French phrase Sault Ste Marie.

Specifically, the masculine noun sault is considered a Middle French word for "jump" or also for "cataracts, rapids, waterfall". The feminine noun sainte means "saint". The feminine proper noun Marie translates as "Mary", in this case referring to the mother of Jesus of Nazareth (7-2 B.C.-A.D.-30-33).

The pronunciation will be "so sent ma-ree" or "solt sent ma-ree" depending upon the French speaker's birthplace.
