Technically you are not supposed to pronounce the l of "Cul".
Technically, IMO the l of "cul" must be pronounced.
How would the plural form sound? cus-de-sac kuhlz-duh-sak
Confirming _PixelNinja words :
you don't pronounce the "l" in cul-de-sac , and the plural form will sound the same , but you shouldn't find it without a pronoun ahead :
le cul-de-sac
les culs-de-sac .
