Sounds like...Mobil or Mobile


Allison tried to give me a hard time about how to pronouce mobile - as in a baby mobile that hangs over the crib. Pbbbbththfthbfthbfthb.

Mo-bile, pronounced moh-beel - a piece of sculpture having delicately balanced units constructed of rods and sheets of metal or other material suspended in midair by wire or twine so that the individual parts can move independently, as when stirred by a breeze.
