No idea. The links are simply little play buttons on the site...

You need to dl a plugin for ogg vorbis. Or dl winamp. Ogg vorbis files are my fav..... Never use mp3

Use Audacity for the Mac. It`s free! Audacity: Free Audio Editor and Recorder (http://audacity.sourceforge.net/)

They work great with VLC, a very useful media player for the Mac (it also plays .wmv files and many others).





Thanks for posting these!

Just go to Forvo: the pronunciation guide. All the words in the world pronounced by native speakers (http://www.forvo.com/) and serch for the words manually. you then have a play button that uses the website`s built-in audio player.



Great topic Bence! :spot

Thanks Toni! I`m trying to make life easier for those who don`t know the exact pronunciation of these brands. We all have heard "strange versions". :D



BTW the links show directly to Forvo`s built-in player...
