    Here's croatian alphabet:

    (pronunciation guide: 3. sounds like -ts-; 4. sounds like -ch- in cheap; 5. is similar, only much softer; 7. sounds like -j- in jump; 8. is similar, only much softer; 11. sounds like -g- in go; 14. sounds like -y- in you; 17. sounds like -ly-; 20. sounds like -ny-; 25. sounds like -sh- in push; 27. sounds like -oo- in boot; 30. sounds like hungarian -zs- in Zsa Zsa Gabor)

    New theme? I dunno. It's a free country and a free thread (and no, we won't be exclusively MA-orientated). Post what you will.

    K used the word "teen" instead of women. I guess he has it from there.

    I like the "grejpfrut". It sounds very similar
