How do I pronounce any on the following list?
The English pronunciation of the following:
For the record, the brackets is how I’m pronouncing them right now. If any are wrong, please correct me.
Luzern (Luh-tzeh-rn)
Zurich (Zooh-rick)
Bern (Beh-rn)
Geneve (Djeh-neh-ve) — I have a feeling this one is wrong.
Basel (Baj-zel)
Donna Karan (Doh-nah Kah-ran)
And that’s all I can think of at the moment.
So..If you know the proper pronunciation of any of the above, I’d greatly appreciate it. 
Whoops, for a second there I forgot that there are people whose English is slightly more different than mine.
I’m from Ontario, if that helps any.
By the way, does anyone know the Swiss way of pronouncing each of the cities?
And yes, I did mean the designer, Donna Karen, if that is how her name is spelled.
You were quite close: Try this phonetically:
Luzern – Lou Zern
Zurich – Zooer-ick
Geneve – Zhen-eva
Basel – Bahh-zel
Donna Karan – Donna Carein
Hope this helps
