As I mentioned in my previous post, sometimes I have a hard time finding the correct pronunciations of words in narration scripts or audio books. Especially if it is a foreign word or proper name it can be hard to track down. Here’s a few more resources that were suggested to me:
Merk Manuel: lots of medical terms
Voice of America Pronounciation Guide
Lots of good sources for names! In addition, I had a project recently with a lot of foreign words, specifically Arabic, and this site: HowJSay, seemed to include a lot of them.

Great beginnings of some commonly asked for items, and HowISay is a definite lifesaver.
Thanks!
