Once again my deadline for the new online concert and movie trailers ends in 12 hours and I came across some more names of musicians that give me a headache Wink I'ld really much appreciate if somebody could enlighten me on how to pronounce these names correctly:

Group name: De La Soul
(is it just the mix between french "de la" and english "soul"??

Band members: Posdnuos, Trugoy the Dove and Pasemaster Mase

Oh yeah, and in case we have turkish or arabic VO here, how about these two names: Takva, Muharrem

Thanks a lot for all your valuable input

Thomas

I'll try to help you out on this one. I interviewed them years ago.

Posdnous is "pas - ta - noos (like you)" like as having pasta
Trugoy is "true - goy (like toy)" trugoy is yogurt backwards Smile
Pasemaster is "pace - master"

Hope this helps if my memory serves me. Good luck.

A recording of the words might be a good way to get it accross better than pronouncers. Just my humble opinion.
