How do you pronounce the name of this Greek Cookie?
koo-loo-ree-ah κουλούρια


stress on -loo-





sgl form is 'koulouri' κουλούρι


koo-loo-ree





diminutive is 'koulourakia' κουλουράκια


koo-loo-rahk-yah


stress on -rahk-





-ah is like 'a' in Al
Reply:Well, koulouria (=κουλούρια) is the plural form.





Pronounciation:





kou (κου):


like "coo" in "cook"





lou (λου):


like "loo" in "look"





r (ρ):


"r" (as it is)





ia (ια):


like "ya" in "yammy"





Actually, the correct way to say "ia" is like:


ee-a (ee like "i" in "if" and a like "u" in "up")


However, nobody prounounced it like this in Greece. Therefore, it is:





coo-loo-r-ya (accent on loo)





As for the singular form, it is (koulouri) κουλούρι and it is pronounced like this:





coo-loo-ree





Hope i didn't confuse you!
