tsk tsk, here's some help:
Dumonde = Doo - mon - day (mon as in pokemon) Thats how De Leon said it when I interviewed him.
Flutlicht = Floot (like foot, keep the oo short) - liggt
This is difficult to explain, coz the english langauge doesnt have a sound to describe the 'ggt' I mean. dutch/german/afrikaans have the sound (thats how I know, I can speak afrikaans) its kinda like the sound you get when you scratch cardboard.
Lange = Lange (as in KD Lange) - a
Hope that helps :D |

okay, a few clear ups
Ibiza
uk people mostly say it eye-beef-ah
Lange
said : like the the first part of banjo, i.e. banj said in the same way as banjo. then replace with lange.
Dumonde is def : Du-mon-d but if u say with French accent its said almost without the d like Du-mon with a slight d sound :S |

HA! i was always pronouncing "Dumonde" like the way Kr00t0n said...like "Doo-mon-day" but i was corrected a few times and told it is "doo-mond". i guess i was right:)
and as for Tijs Verwest i am like 99.9% sure it's pronounced "Tice" (rhymes w/ dice) or "Ties" (pronounced exactly how it's spelled). i read in a article (interview actually) that he has a nickname..he said his friends call him "ties". so maybe that is just to mock his first name sounding like "Tice"...arghh who knows...i say it like "Tice".
also what's up w/ the "e" in Chicane...is it like "Chi-kan-ay" or is it pronounced literally like it's spelled w/ a long "a" in the second syllable?? like "Chi-cane" (second part rhyming with Jane).
k and one more...Johan Gielen. is it like "Yo-hon" or "Joe-hon" and is Geilen like "Gee-len"? (the g sound being the same as in the word guy) i always said, "Yo-hon Gee-len"...
great thread btw...i have always questioned whether i was pronouncing the names correctly or not.... |

It's Yo-hon Hee-len.
I can't believe it's "Due Monday",
:toothless
And about Flutlicht, isn't the "ch" just an "h" sound as in "ha"??
It's german. |

There's a footballer down here with the same surname, and his is pronounced "Lang" (hard G). Dunno if this Lange pronounces his name the same way though. |
the boots are like that too |
