Hey everyone!
I've been wondering for a while now, how do you say the brand names of the K-Brand 'ukuleles? Sure, I get KoAloha, that's pretty simple, but I'm just not sure about the others.
For instance,
I pronounce
-Kamaka /as/ KUH-MAH-KUH.
-Ko'olau /as/ KOO-OH-LAU.
-Kanile'a /as/ CAN-IH-LAY-UH
Does anyone else pronounce these differently, properly, anything? It's been bugging me, because I always thought I knew these, but I recently heard somebody pronounce Kamaka as KAH-MUH-KUH, and it threw me off a bit. I realized I don't hear much of these names, I just see them. Any help would be appreciated.
