Re: Do's and Dont's
These are obviously native Indian names. I have no knowledge of the pronunciations here, so let me take a stab at it (without help from Google)...
Sequim - Either Seh'keem, Seh'queem or Seh'kwimm
Puyallup - Poo'yuh-lupp (certainly not "PooYal-luhp"!)
I posted this before, but here again is a true story. Tourists once stopped my girlfriend and friends in Maui and asked how to drive to "Kan'nah'pole'lee".....
a.k.a. Ka'anapali.
And how can you dislike driving on the "Like Like" freeway? lol I still hear even some locals pronounce it "Lee'kee-lee'kee".
Hawaii is still being pronounced "Hah'Y".
