How do you pronounce the name petra in German?

The German pronunciation of "Petra" is very similar to the English pronunciation:

PAY-tra

* PAY: The "P" sound is similar to English, but slightly more aspirated.

* tra: The "tra" sounds like the "tra" in "train," with the "a" being short and open, not like the "a" in "father."

It's important to note that there is no "eh" sound in the German pronunciation.
