h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Hi,
A few days ago a very kind person by the name of Banjo Golly translated ' The only person I can trust is myself ' for me. It comes out as
' Mihi soli confidere possum '. Sorted !

But can somebody actually tell me how you pronounce it ?

ie. is it ' Meehee solee con-fid-air poss-um ' ???

you get my drift ?
I would like to sound as if I know what I'm talking about when people ask !

Cheers.

You say it like:

MI-hee SOW-lee cone-FEE-de-ray POS-sum.

'Sow' as in needle and thread, not the pig, that is.
The 'u' is like 'oo' in 'wood', not like the 'u' in 'run'.

Thanks a lot !!

I appreciate it, I'll have to start practising it now !!

cheers.
