Can't Pronounce Something? Use this thread to get it straight.
Ok...I wanna know how the hell to pronounce
Tijs Verwest (Tiesto's real name.)
Dumonde (here come the flames)- I'm not quite sure if I'm saying it right....do you put accent on the "e"
Well thats all for now that I need to know. So if anybody else has trouble pronouncing something just post it.

For Tijs Verwest, I think Tijs is like saying tiys. As for the verwest part, not completely sure.
Dumonde is not with an accented e at the end (at least not the way I pronounce it).

Is it AR-MIN Van Buuren or AR-MEEN Van Buuren??? I've heard it both ways but I think it was in a set on ID&T they said AR-MEEN. Which is right?
its pronounced Paul Van Dook that what he said in a interview a while ago.

L'ezperanza? WTF HELP!~
Paul Van DYK: it's like dyke or dike
l'esperanza is "hope" in Italian, pronounced as it's written, la (cola) esperanza: es- is as in "s", -pe- is as in per, -ran- as in ra, the Egyptian god of Sun, and then you have the -za, as in simply zaa
