Well...while we are at it, how do you pronounce "Sikhote-alin" ? You can't
begin to imagine how I was pronouncing it until I heard someone actually
say it aloud about a month ago. Figured it had to be right because it was
easier to get thru the lips. I now understand it to be pronounced like
this...Sid-coat-e-a-lean.
That's from the point of view of english speaking people. Am I close or am
I still off?
