It’s BARACK – BA’-ROCK – not “Brock”.

It’s Clin-Ton, not Clin-uhn (i’m guilty here)

It’s EAR-rock, not EYE-rack

It’s EAR-ron, not EYE-ran.

(those are easy to remember, think ears not eyes)

Bonus round: it’s Ahk-meh-din-i-jad. All together now… Ahk-meh-din-i-jad. Negative points will be issued for skipping syllables.

If we’re going to be living with these people for the next 8 years, we might as well get it right.

    I must confess I have been saying Eye-rack, I stand corrected. Thank you.

  2. Mom says:

    How do you know those are the correct prononciations? I think Eyeran and Eyerock are the correct way to say those bad places.

  3. YFC,

    You stand at the computer? :)
