Dawn ,'The Killer In Me'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I know the basic rules of Spanish. Why the Willamette rhymes with "Dang nabbit?" I will never know.
Growing up in Connecticut (which is, according to InfoPlease, "from an Indian word [Quinnehtukqut] meaning 'beside the long tidal river'"), I have the opposite problem. I get the Native American names for the most part, but I've felt like a total idiot trying to pronounce names in SoCal. ND laughed his ass off at my first attempt at "Cahuenga."
HO! Kessin!

Diamond State Represent!
How about Waukesha?
How about Shawano?
(Hint - it's pronounced with two syllables....)
How does one pronounce Sepulveda?
SehPULvdah.
I like to say it SepulVAYda myself. I seem to recall that's not a bastardisation like the rest, but a family name or something.
The worst here for me was trying to get a cab to take me to Los Feliz. Loss FEELiz, for those not from these parts.
Suh-PULL-veh-duh.
KUH-wheng-uh.
Great. Hec asked a question in movies, and there was some Facebook updating, so I'm still here and can't leave until I find good pictures of Iman and Eve Salvail for my site.
It's good for you, and good for America.
Hmmm. I'm going to go with:
WALK-shaw and SHAW-no.
The second one has to be wrong, though.

Probably. But that's how everyone pronounces it, though.
