CORRECT PRONUNCIATION

[moonie]

sequins - long e and short i

sequence - long e then a short e or schwa

sequin = "see-kwen"

(definitely not "se-kwin")

^When I was there, they tried to explain it to me, pero hindi ko masyado naintindihan. I think it depends on the usage (either as modifier or noun), "Deutsche" and "Deutsch", respectively. Pls correct me if I'm wrong.

[vahyn-l] 

all the while, akalo ko, vee-neel pronunciation non. akalain ko ba naman.

[twelve5]

ang hirap ano?  maski ako, first thing that comes to mind is the wrong pronunciation. i always have to correct my brain whenever i see that word.

see-kwen!
see-kwen!
see-kwen!
