Pronunciations?

[Drake]

ka-roho......sig-lo.....

is that sig like cigarette or sig like seeg? isn't 'i' in spanish an ee sound?

[bigpoppapuff]

i've always heard it pronounced as sig lo...sig as in cig......

[cls515]

as I posted earlier, the I in spanish is pronounced the same as the e in see. To be correct, Siglo is pronounced, see - glow. In Americanish, sig-lo is the pronunciation.

How about "Ligero"?

I visited Ybor City, FLA last month and met Felix of Tampa Cigar. Felix is a native Cuban.

Felilx pronouonces ligero "LI - YER - OH" almost like the spanish "J" pronounced as an English "H".

I have always thought it was a hard G as in "Gut".

Opinions?

I think that it's supposed to have a softer g sound, with mroe emphasis on the surrounding vowels, and maby his accent, you could just hardly hear it. Just my assumption.

What about Bohia?

I say, as long as it tastes good, who cares how to say it? (Or you could stick w/ the easy ones: Te-Amo, Punch, Rocky Patel, etc.)
