Uhm... the English language doesn't have the 'ui' and English speaking people would probably have trouble pronouncing it!
I have no idea how to explain it! ???
David, can you pronounce snuitje?
David In Indy:
I'm terrible at trying to type out phonetics!
But, I think the closest way to explain how it's pronounced would be something like "snowt-yuh"
Snowt (like snout) with a "yuh" or "yeh" sound after it.
I guess I could have said to say it like snout-yuh.
I don't know Melissa! lol :-\

That's probably the only way English speaking people can pronounce it but it's nowhere near how it is pronounced. God, I wish I could post a sound link.
Oh by the way, I have posted a new thread where you can write text messages that Ennis and Jack could've/would've sent eachother if they had had cell phones! It's in the fanfic section!
