Dear Matt and List
Pronunciation of the LL in different countries is not the same, even in Argentina we have at least 3 very ways to pronounce the LL. The "porteņos" (Buenos Aires citizens) like me pronounce in the way you heard.

How about La Criolla? I heard from Eduardo (meteorites.com) say it like "La Crioche". Is that correct or was my hearing messed? Same with Mocs, Gero Kurat from Vienna said "Mocsh". Werid to me.

I assume Gao rhymes with Tao.  Guenie?  You've got me.
Rhymes with Benny?  --Rob


You got that one right!

Gao like Tao,  Guenie like  Gwen - Knee
Now who wants to try "Orgueil"  or "L'Aigle"  or "Tafassasset" ?
