Uh-luh-muh-ee-l-muh-n wuh-suh-rut. The Finnish "a" is pronounced like the "u" in "hut" or "fun", and "i" like the "i" in "killer". The nouns are pretty much the same as in other Scandinavian languages.
Well, ü is usually pronounced like a Norwegian "y"(sorry) So say it like Amon Dyyl (the y-sound being like the one that starts the word "yes")
Erm, I think you're wrong; "ü" is indeed pronounced like "y", but it isn't the y-sound of "sorry" or "yes". Ü/y sounds somewhat like the "u" in "duke" or "dune", but I'm not sure whether there is an exact English equivalent for that sound.

Notwist:NOT-wist orNO-twist?

I think you meant to type "pair OOboo" (and while pere does mean father, here it does not--it's a familiar way to refer to someone, like "Mr./Monsieur" but without the respect that implies)

I say "Note-vist", but I'm making fun of them when I do. It's "No Twist".
