vizcaino / vizcaino

[idseer]

ok .... how is this guy's name pronounced? i was in the chicago area this past 2 weeks and heard it 2 ways.

viz sky ay no
and
viz cay no

since the 'a' comes before the 'i' i am leaning toward the latter.

anyone?

I think it is the first one but without the s sound after viz.

Viz Ka Ino would be how I'd say it.

Pronounced: VIS-ky-EE-no

[idseer]

I think it is the first one but without the s sound after viz. i didn't know how else to phonetically make the sound without the 's'.
'ky' could be pronounced either 'kee' or 'ky'.
basically, the way i wrote it, the 's' i silent.

and how is the 'ky' pronounced?

[MRKARNO]

and how is the 'ky' pronounced? Like "hi," but I would pronounce it Vis-kah-eeno

[Jabroni]

and how is the 'ky' pronounced?Pronounced: VIS-ky-EE-no

Like the word "sky" without the "s".

[idseer]

Like "hi"
ok ... so it's ' viz sky ee no '

thanks to all.

[Jabroni]

ok ... so it's ' viz sky ee no '

thanks to all.No...

VIS - ky - EE - no

Say it one segment at a time. It's not that difficult.

[idseer]

No...

VIS - ky - EE - no

Say it one segment at a time. It's not that difficult. vis ... as in 'hiss'. got it. thanks.

[Jabroni]

vis ... as in 'hiss'. got it. thanks.Yep. :thumbsup:

I made a sound recording of myself saying it how I would say it if I came across his name in a Spanish text. Don't know if this is correct, but its what I say now.

Bah, apparently we can't upload .mov files.

anyone? When you learn 'a e i o u' in spanish, you will be on the right track.

[MeanFish]

Viz - kai - ee - noh

That should clear it up.

[Jabroni]

Viz - kai - ee - noh

That should clear it up.Nope. It's not pronounced "Viz". It's pronounced "Vis". Just like the word "hiss" sounds different than "hiz".

[MeanFish]

damn. you're right.

[Erik The Red]

You're ALL wrong. It's pronounced beece-kai-EE-noh. The "v" in spanish is pronounced as a "b".

That is, if you want the true Spanish pronunciation, and not the gringo pronunciation.

[fquaye149]

tell that to omar beezkell

and ho-say baalenteen

[fuzzy_patters]

You're ALL wrong. It's pronounced beece-kai-EE-noh. The "v" in spanish is pronounced as a "b".

That is, if you want the true Spanish pronunciation, and not the gringo pronunciation.I don't think that is right. I think it would be Bees-KI-no with the i and o long because the "ai" combination is a dipthong as in the verb "bailar" meaning to dance.

edit: If he has an accent mark over the "I" Erik the Red's spelling is correct.

[surfdudes]

A- ahhh
I - Eeeeee

AI- ahhhheeeee

a V pronounced like a B? Maybe on Saturday Night Live..........
