How do you pronounce...

[methinks]

the word YOSEMITE (it's a national park in the USA)?

Would it be something like "jousemajt"? Or maybe "jousimajt"? Or maybe
the "s" is voiced, more like "z"?

Thanks for help.

[jołse'miti]

Thanks.

Couldn't find it in any of my dictionaries.

el_presidente - the problem is you are not saying what pronunciation key you
are using.
If you use Polish "ł" the accent should be written before the accented syllable
resulting in [joł'semiti].
At the same time according to British and American-English pronunciation key
Yosemite would be [yOsem´itE] or [yow'semitee] or [Yo-sem'-e-tee].

[el_presidente666]

I didn't know such an ambiguity exists, but yes - I should have written
"jołSEmiti" or perhaps "jołSEmyti", because it's clear-cut.

josemity z akcentem na "se". Pamietaj tez, ze "i" jest nieco blizsze
polskiemu "y", a "y" nieco blizsze polskiemu "i". Tak wiec brzmi to troche
jak "joSEmyti".

Thanks a lot!

That's the thing I was looking for.
