The a's in Spanish are pronounced ahh as in open your mouth and say "ahhh"\nThe e's are pronounced "ey" part in the word "hey".\nthe i's are pronounced "eee"\nthe o's are pronounced "oh" and the \nu's are pronounced like the "oo" in "boo".\nIf you can remember that then you can say just about any word in Spanish correctly.

I have no idea, but it looks like a variation of Signy, an old Germanic name was derived from Sigr (victory) and ny (new). If this is the case, then it would be pronounced with two syllables. Unfortunately a "g" is not always a "g" sound, so it could be pronounced "Siye-ne," but "sig-nee" is probably more likely.

Hi, try the Cambridge english pronouncing dictionary by Daniel Jones, i'm not sure if they have a website, coz i couldn't find it. But the book has most of the pronunciations you are looking for.\n\nKyoto - 'kjeu.teu/ki'eu.teu/ki:ou.tou (eu as in diphthong low)\nPeugeot - p3:zeu/p3:zou/pu:zou/pju:zou (z as in measure)\nVincent - vint.s(shwa)nt (the shwa sound is very slight)\nSmyth - Smith(th as in your theta)/smaith\nMcDonald - m(shwa)k'dan.(shaded shwa)ld/maek.da:n(shaded schwa)ld\nHoffman - ha:fm(schwa)n\n\nHope this helps..

Depends on how you pronounce the name.\n\nI see the English version of the name may be pronounced four different ways:\n\n(a)  a-LIS-a \n(b)  a-LIS-ya\n(c)  a-LISH-a \n(d)  a-LEE-sha\n\nhttp://www.behindthename.com/php/search.php?nmd=n&terms=alicia&submit=Go\n\nMy bet is it's one of the last two (the most common, I believe).  So:\n\nIf you pronounce it "a-LEE-sha" (long i), it rhymes with:\n Phoenicia, paramecia\n\nIf you say "a-LISH-a " (short i), it rhymes with \nMorticia, milita, comitia, adventitia\n\nFor a-LIS-a:\nmantissa, abscissa, crissa, vibrissa\n\nBeyond that you might need to be a bit more informal.  For instance  \nfor (b)."I'll miss ya" or "..kiss ya"

You first need to know how to pronounce the sounds...\na - as in Awe \ni - eel\nu - ooh\ne - as in Egg\no - as in Over\n\nThen add the consanants after them and you will have the alphabet.... k, s, t, n, h, m, r, g, z, d, b, p, l, etc.\n   For the 'y' sounds... just YA, YU, YO    And for the 'w' sounds just WA and WO - as in Over.\n   There are a few differences... 'si' is SHI (with shhh sound), 'ti' is CHI (with 'ch' sound), 'tu' is TSU (with 'ts' sound - not 't' then 's', but together like a backwards 'st'), 'hu' is FU (with just the pushing of breath, no 'ffff' sound really), all 'R' sounds are like those in spanish, blurred l'r sound.... Ringo, Rodregez, etc.  \n\n(pronunciation written)\nJapanese has an alaphabet called hiragana.  Below will have pronuncation and then hiragan written...\n\nohaio gozai-mas - good morning --- o-ha-i-o go-za-i-ma-su\n\nkan-ban-wa - good evening ------------- ko-n-ba-n-wa\n\nnani - what --------------- na-ni\n\nari-ga-to(w) - thank you  -------------  a-ri-ga-to-u\n\ndo-i-tashi-mashi-te - your welcom. --------------- do-i-ta-shi-ma-shi-te\n\njya-ne - bye (between friends)\n\nHope that helps.

I would pronounce it, :Vine'ee

Jewelry - not Joolery\nAsterisk - not a$$-trick (and oddly enough, I had to use dollar signs to avoid asterisks!)\nCavalry - not Calvery (unless you're talking about the mountain) \n\nI have an aunt who cannot say "breakfast" - she says "breftuss". It drives me absolutely bonkers.\n\nJust a note regarding the pronunciation of the word "the" - both pronunciations are correct. Generally, the schwa sound  "thuh" is used before words beginning with consonants (the building), and the long E "thee" is used before words beginning with vowels (the outdoors). "Thee" is also used to emphasize the importance of the following word. See the Wikipedia article below.\n\nI'll also add one more word - Been. I admit, I have a tendency to get sloppy and say "bin" or "ben" although the correct pronunciation is "bee-n". (long E like seen).\n(Update - my "bin" pronunciation is acceptable! Check out the Merriam-Webster Online dictionary with the audio pronunciation. Whew - I'm not an illiterate idiot after all.)\n\nOkay, back with a couple more.\n\nMoot (moo like a cow, not mew like a kitten)\nSpecific (not pacific)\nProbably (this has 3 syllables, not 2 - it is pro bab ly not prob ly)

I believe the G is silent. I know someone named Nga, and it's pronounced "Naw"

I would think it would be pronounced "lay".  I knew a girl whose last name was Bey, and it was pronounced "Bay".

I'm pretty sure that it's hello in Laosian (hmmm, I don't think I spelled that one right - anyways, from the country Laos in Asia). My uncle is engaged to a woman from Laos and she always says this to us. That is, if the phrase you are trying to say is pronounced like: "sah bai dee" (the "ai" in "bai"/"bay" pronounced like "eye"). As for a word-for-word translation, I have no clue. All I know is that it means "hello." I hope that this helps!
