Pronunciation Guides Previous Page Folk Dancing/Teaching Home Page
Have you ever attended (or been one of the emcees at) a festival or dance where dance names were horribly mispronounced, even by the very people who should either have known better or have researched the names beforehand? Have you ever wanted to know for yourself how to request your favorite dance and have the correct one played?
Here, for the benefit of teachers, leaders, and dancers who care, are a few language pronunciation guides. Please let us know of any errors you find or of any other pronunciation guides you'd like to submit. (Click HERE for special characters/diacriticals.)
