How do you pronounce...?

[Supplement Four]

Kinunir.

Ken-ah-neer?

Or, how about...

Regina.

Many American say it like the girl's name: Ree-gee-nah.

I notice many Brits say it like the female pretty part: Rhymes with vagina.

[Valarian]

Ki-noo-neer

[EDIT]
Regina .... as the man said Ree-jeye-ner (confirming the UK pronunciation)

[EDIT again - just can't keep up]
Gauss ... Gowsz

Or, even...

Gauss.

I say: Gowss (sounds like "cow" with long "s" attached).

Notice that some people say: Gahss (take "gas" and use the schwah sound for the "a")

As this in named for Gauss, it's easy to establish that it should be like 'gous' - from dictionary definitions.

I'm afraid I'd have to go for the Vilani pronunciation of Kinunir, the Latin pronunciation of Regina, and the German pronunciation of Gauss. Anything else is just plain wrong!
