Is it not ridiculous?

I find it slightly ridiculous that I can pronounce Devoucoux without a problem but still don't know how to say Collegiate.

Or Rabicano. Or Sabino. Or overo, tovero, or tobiano.

Anyone care to enlighten me?

I know what you mean! I can say words other people absolutely can't, and then I can't even say one of my friend's names His name is Muir, but I have the hardest time, so I just call him Moo.

Oh-VAIR-oh
Rahb-i-CAHN-o
Sah-BEEN-o
Toh-bee-AH-no
Toh-VAIR-oh

That's how I say 'em

Now how do you pronounce "Devoucoux", and what is it?

Also, how do you say HYPP? Is it H-Y-P-P, or "hip"?

It is H-Y-P-P, I had to ask someone on here to fill me in, I was saying it wrong lol! And I still have no idea how to pronounce it, but Devoucoux is a saddle brand. http://www.devoucoux.com/
