Pronuncia

mut͡ɬwɪʔ

Pronuncia mutlhwI' lettera per lettera:

• mmm as in 'moon'
• uuu as in 'boot'
• tlht͡ɬt released into a breathy lateral, no English equivalent
• www as in 'way'
• Iɪi as in 'bit'
• 'ʔglottal stop, the catch in 'uh-oh'

• The idea is that a mutlhwI' puts things together. So a ngogh mutlhwI' is not (necessarily) someone who makes bricks, but someone who takes bricks that are already made and assembles them into something (such as a building). Similarly, a beb mutlhwI' doesn't make the roof, but, rather, lays out the shingles or planks or stones or whatever the roof is made out of. [2012-01-12-Email]
