Re: 7.6 Quake in Mexico
I hope everyone is okay down there.
In a town near me, there are a lot of Mexicans from Oaxaca. I never knew how to pronounce it (or their shops, which they call Oaxaquenas) until i asked someone. Wa-Ha-Ca, or in the stores case, Wa-Ha-Cane-Ya. Not very relevant, I know, but it is an awkward looking word for me and for that reason interesting. /Cool story bro |

Re: 7.6 Quake in Mexico
Earthquakes suck, especially in areas with

A lady from oaxaca would also be a oaxaqueña. (señora oaxaqueña) wa-ha-KEN-ya is a more appropriate pronunciation, IMO. /Spanish Lesson.
