In Response To: Re: Fair point.... (SiliconDream =PN=)

: Gaelic expert I am not, but I'd bet the original
: pronounciation involves some larynx-shattering
: Germanesque gargle that's more or less equidistant
: from English "aw" and "ock" and
: "ack." It would if it was Welsh, anyway.

: --SiliconDream

i believe in the narrations where it was pronounced it was something like "kon-naw'ct". that's as close the pronunciation as i could get it in letters, but the "ch" would sound something like the scottish "loch", i believe.
