OK, I’m listening! Can you give me the correct pronunciation for Chiriqui?
I have heard some folks pronounce it “Cherokee”, as in the American Indian tribe. Is this correct?
Your pronunciation is close. In Spanish the “I” is pronounced as an “E” is pronounced in English. However, there is no “o” sound in the word. It is more like chair-e-key.
If you use Microsoft or Yahoo Messenger or SKYPE, you can chat with me at one of the following addresses:
chiriquichatter@live.com
chiriquichatter@yahoo.com
ChiriquiChatter on SKYPE **NOTE** for SKYPE, you may need to have me turn it on, because I might be signed on to my private skype account.
If you add me to your messenger, I will have to approve the request before chats can be made.
