Dear All,
I had my favorite paleobotanist exclaim: I don't care how you pronounce
it, tomatoe or tomatow as long as you know what you are talking about...
We were discussing parenchima, and zylom and phloem. My personal
favorite is chalcedony pronounced cal-ced-knee.

Hi Tom, Jay and List,
I posted a message to Meteorite Central about this very issue
(pronunciation) last year, but no one decided to bite at the
time. (I had asked about Ghubara). As for Allende, I've
always pronounced it: Ah-yen'-day. How 'bout Sikhote-Alin?
My guess has been: Si-ko'-tay
Hi Serguei,
In Russian it sounds like Si-ho-te Al'-in'
Actually it is Chinise name.
How interesting! I wouldn't have guessed. Given that spelling
conversions from Cyrillic (or Chinese) are somewhat arbitrary,
one would question the choice of a k if no hard K sound is
in the name... --Rob
Hi Dave,
I mean, how DO you say Gao Gueniebuggered if I know!
I assume Gao rhymes with Tao. Guenie? You've got me.
Rhymes with Benny? --Rob

Hi All,
One I always hear mispronounced is Willamette.
It is said as wil-LAM-it
Not will-a-MET as so many non-Oregonians say.
By the way, that's ORE-a-gun, not or-E-gone or ORE-e-gun.

Ideally, we could get native speakers from the regions in question to give
us the last word in pronunciation of various meteorite names. That way,
no one would be subjected to my mangling of Chassigny or Tissemoumine!

Sorry to get off subject slightly... A couple months ago I was traveling through Mexico (Since I was in Tuscon anyway) and I noticed many streets where named Allende, resturants and other places used Allende as part of it name. It made me want to steal a street sign, just kidding.That would have

Hi Christian,
The millenium ended on December 31, 2001, so Tagish is correct.

I believe La Criolla holds to the same Spanish pronunciation as Allende
with the ll sound of ye or ya.La
- cree - o - yaw. This is assuming the name place is a Spanish name
and not Portuguese.
As for Mbale, I have a friend from that part of Africa and his last name
is Ncube. He pronounces it
Dear Matt and List
Pronunciation of the LL in different countries is
not the same, even inArgentina we have at least 3 very ways to pronounce
theLL. The "porteños" (Buenos Aires citizens) like mepronounce in

Eduardo pronouces La Criolla with the LL in the
sound of a J, all people from Argentina, Uruguay,and southern Chile pronounce
the doubleL that way, it is linguistic nuance, in all other Spanish
speaking countries, double L is pronounced like ya or ye. I was a linguist in
Army Intelligence,
For me is easier to pronounce La Criolla that Cat
Mountain, it depends on if you are from the country where the meteorite was
found... and even that not allways works. Look for example our Angrite,
D'Orbigny. It was found 400km from home and I needed a lesson from Anne to get
the right
After following this thread for just one evening, it is evident that most

Hi Rob !
Why ?
Tagish Lake : January 18, 2000
Moravka : May 06, 2000
End of millenium : December 31, 2001 (your words)
(even it is December 31, 2000 - Moravka is later than Tagish)
So I think May is later than Jaunary or..?
Best wishes,

Hi Christian,

I've been out there trying to get a decent image of the
comet for the last 3 weeks. I've been using my digital
camera and finally got a pretty good set of images on the

Michael and all,
There are a wide variety of pronunciations of Spanish words,
depending on country and even regeon.
However, Allende is in central Mexico - not Argentina or Portugal
MOST people consider proper pronunciation to be the way a location
