I'm drinking rioja. How do I know it's pronounced reoka when I don't speak Spanish?

[Psybbo]

you will know when you have finished the bottle

[Tilly2]

I'm not drinking the whole bottle by myself, sibton. Half and half. We've just had roast lamb and this is left over.

[Psybbo]

oh that sounds lovely

[Tilly2]

It was. Lashings of garlic and rosemary on the outside and lovely and pink on the inside.

[Buenchico]

If you did speak Spanish, you'd know that it ISN'T pronounced 'reoka'!

The 'j' should be pronounced with a sound akin to that of Donald Duck clearing his throat.

[sandyRoe]

something like: reo ha

[Tilly2]

Thanks buenchico and sandy. I need to practise that. Reo ah. Got it I think.

(if nothing else that's ^ a site you can have fun with making it pronounce naughty words)

[Tilly2]

I'll have a look later, chuck.
