  I believe La Criolla holds to the same Spanish pronunciation as =
Allende with the "ll" sound of "ye" or "ya".....La - cree - o - yaw. =
This is assuming the name place is a Spanish name and not Portuguese.

  As for Mbale, I have a friend from that part of Africa and his last =
name is Ncube. He pronounces it "new - bay". If the same =
pronunciation conventions applies to Mbale, then it would sound like "ma =
- lay".

  Rob Elliott's "Leighlinbridge" isn't pronounced the way it looks. I =
believe it is pronounced "lock - lynn - bridge". Rob can clarify this =
one.

  Go figure.

  At least I know how to pronounce most of the Arizona meteorites. How =
far off can you be with "Cat Mountain"?
