> Is it AHH-sah-HEE or ahh-SAH-high or something else entirely? In Japanese language, as a general rule, there normally is no real intonation in pronunciation of words (boring language, eh :-). Intonation on the second syllable from the last is the English rule. In case of Asahi, if I have to put any sort of intonation, it might be on AHH-sah-hee, certainly not ahh-SAH-high. Actually, AHH-sah-HEE might be closer :-). Well no, AHH-sah-hee must be it. Cheers, Ken
