ways and I've heard two different recruiting gurus on podcasts pronounce it two different ways.
And i can barely even pronounce it correctly without getting tongue-tied using your phonetic breakdown.

Sorry Belton - that will not help me. Maybe call him the "U" guy or something. I'll never master that name. As a retiree, we longer have to learn new stuff.

I practiced yesterday for the conversation with my two bama coworkers.
If David Hood had it right, I nailed it.
Of course they wouldn't know if I did or not.

I've been trying since last year, and I think I might have it now. I also was butchering Phommachahn's name too.

With the accent on the last syllable: we-onga-leh-LAY.
The g's like it is in "singer", not like in "longer".
There's a very little "oo" sound at the very beginning of his name.
So five or six syllables, it appears, depending on the weight of that first "oo".
