How do you pronounce "Goncalo Alves"?

[Joni_Lynn]

I gave up on getting people to pronounce anything correctly.
Practically no one can even get my first name right.

I pronounce them "Smith & Wesson Standard Wood Grips" or just say G.A. for short.

I think if it's on a lawyer's gun, it's pronounced "Gone-Sue-U Always".

I think if it's on a lawyer's gun, it's pronounced "Gone-Sue-U Always".

As Larry the Cable Guy says, "that's funny right there that is. I don't care who you are"

Gonçalo Alves - the "c" with that little hook on it is called a cedilla. The name is Portuguese, because the wood comes from Brazil, where Portuguese is the official language. That "c" has an "s" sound. So, it's pronounced "gon-SAH-low al-veez".

Pau Ferro - another Brazilian wood, literally meaning "Iron Wood". Pronounced "pow fer-oo", with the double-r rolled just a bit on the tongue.
