Help[Opinions] Huguette
in reply to a message by RegalAmethyst
The second syllable in Huguette has a hard "g" sound, exactly like the English word "get," as in "Get me a magazine." It rhymes with baguette.
How you pronounce the first syllable depends on how pure to French pronunciation you are willing to go. "oo" for a purist. (But that's not really correct either. I can't do it in type.) "hyoo-" for us hoidens.

Thank you! Now I can love Huguette. I much prefer hyoo-, although I think I understand what sound you mean when you say oo-.
