I recently completed my OW and have been looking around at the various web sites, magazines and forums, gathering info, trying to decide what gear I would like to buy.
The problem I'm having is I'm not sure if I'm pronouncing the names of some of the manufacturers correctly.
So that I don't sound like a complete idiot in conversation with other divers or at the LDS, I was wondering if some of you might be willing to help me out. And I'm sure I'm not the only one who needs it.
Here's my short list. I'm sure there will be more later.
Mares - is it Mars or Mar-is or Marries or something else?
Dacor - is it a long "a" like Day-cor or short or maybe Dack-or?
Beuchat - Bow-chat or Boo-chat?
Halcyon - I think it's Hal-see-on. Am I right?
DIR - is it separate letters D-I-R or Dir?
GUI - G-U-I or Gooey?
So you see my quandry. And these are just the ones the I can think of right now.
Any help would be... um... helpful.
Thanks,
Dave
