Compound that with my accent that never left Arkansas and I'm in real trouble with foreign words. Is there a website that makes this easy for cycling words? Is Gios Joss with a long o? Is Guerciotti Gear-chee-o-tee? Is Vitus Vee-toos? Does Zeus use the Spanish th for the Z? Anybody able to offer some help here? Lou Deeter, "Or-land-o" Florida

Hi All,

A hooked on phonic list would be great for all of the marques, components, etc... We could post it on Dale's site or in Lou's guide? I can start collecting them if people want to send me stuff. If we get more than one pronounciation for something we can post it to the list.
