How do you pronounce this..

[malvolio]

There are a few people attempting to pronounce it in this video:
Brecon Beacons: Park to use Welsh name Bannau Brycheiniog - BBC News
The correct version is 13 seconds in, roughly "Bannow Brick-ain-yog".

"Bann-eye" actually.

Welsh is weird. The letters and dipthongs dont chage their pronunciation but the words do to make them sound nicer. So Bach ("small") becomes Fach if it follows a hard consonant. Can get confusing!

I think all place names in the Wales, Scotland and Cornwall should be known in the language of the area on maps.

Helps to confuse tourists

Cornish names are hard enough already, some places even the locals can't agree how their own town should be pronounced
