@Gnawme,waiwai933: what is the problem with this question. one person was about to answer to my question, and just before that you closed this question. I thought this community will help me to improve my language skill, But now I am thinking less of Stackexchange. I don't want to earn any reputation from this site, all i needed was to clarify my queries. – Scorp Jan 15 '12 at 8:45

@Scorp Don't take it personal for having your question closed. The question itself is not bad but as the reason below explains, it's easy to find the answer on your own... For example on online dictionaries that provide the pronunciation too. :) – Alenanno Jan 15 '12 at 11:22

This question is too basic; it can be definitively and permanently answered by a single link to a standard internet reference source designed specifically to find that type of information. See the FAQ for guidance on how to improve it.
