So many different answers, even the "best" has just two votes.
So, it's like vul-chuck? (With a short u)? This is one questions I haven't been able to find an answer. |

TY Pavel. With that accent I expected to hear "Your papers" next. :)
So the syllables would rhyme with "bull" "chalk"? Will that be up for a while? Can I link it from my site? |
"VL" like in second part of word "level", "Č" like in word "czech", "Á" like in "shark", but long, "K" like in "kilo".

I was curious if I may link it to my site also :) thanx!

I went to try "vlcak" (no symbols), and had the language selected on Dutch (from the last time I translated) - and instead it sounded more like "foo-cock", and with English - "Vul-cack"...and with Korean, "veal-shaky"...:jumpie (to my native American English ears, anyway!) |
Thanks Blitzen for this really interesting post :) I really think we all need to practice :p
Actually it’s easier to pronounce it when you speak French ;) |
