Hi Richard,
Muonionalusta is pronounced quite close to it's spelling with some focus on
the first part "Muon".
Anyway, since I'm Swedish I also find it quite difficult to pronounce this
Finnish word (very much an exercise for your lips and tongue).
Perhaps, a good idea would be to take place in a comfortable chair and do
some home practice in the pronunciation, after having some 2 - 3 drams of a
nice Scottish malt Whisky. For this particular purpose I can warmly
recommend Highland Park 18 Year ;-)
Happy hunting!

Subject: [meteorite-list] How do you pronounce Muonionalusta?
I just got a beautiful slice of Muonionalusta and am curious about how to
pronoun the name properly.
I'm guess at least four different ways, but I'm hoping someone can tell
me.
One guess is
Meew unyun a lust a
a second
Moo unyun a loost a
wit the other two variations of those.
Anyone?
Thanks
