Perhaps someone can help this old gringo out by showing a phonetic spelling Here goes - Man-zah-knee -yo, Zee-who-ah-tan -a(long a)-knee -ho and Ee-zap-ah. At least that's as close as we've gotten and we both speak (a little) Spanish. Hope that helps a little! Charlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
