    DONNEZ-MOI IS THE CORRECT SPELLING AND DONNE-MOI IS HOW YOU WOULD PRONOUNCE IT.

    “Donnez-moi” [dun-ay mwah] is for the vous form of the verb (plural or formal)
    “Donne-moi” [dun mwah] is the tu form of the verb (singular, informal)

    donnez-moi is give me while talking to someone in formal vous
    donne-moi is give me while talking to someone in non-formal tu

    Look for Impératif tense
    Donne! (sécond personne singular - tu)
    Donnons! (first personne plural - nous)
    Donnez! (second personne plural - vous)
