Soft or hard? Confused I have no idea. It's also hard for me to explain the pronounciation, because in Finnish the alphabet are pronounced in a different way than in English.

It's exactly like that, Finnish being a phonetic language like Italian (perhaps even easier than that). All vowels are voiced, so Kone (=machine) is pronounced just like that: ko-ne (not kon or koun). As to the höyry part (=steam), the ö is pronounced as the same vowel in German, and the y like the French u.

Sorry, Vompatti, for stealing the limelight... You can retaliate by explaining how Italian is pronounced next time! Wink

^Well I guess it's pronounced almost in the same way as Finnish, because it's also a phonetic language. Wink

That's exactly what I told him, but doesn't "kone" work for engine as well? I thought Steam Engine would be more likely than Steam Machine.

^For engine we usually use the word "moottori", but kone can be used as well.

I should think Engine and Machine are both interchangable, but in this case, I prefer Machine.  Steam Machine rolls off the tongue better.

I've been trying for days to post a really dishy picture of Eddie Jobson for the (probably very few) ladies who might still frequent this thread, but there were technical problems, so I gave up. I'll try again, though... So much beauty should be displayed! Wink

Strange folk singers, muscular gothchicks and Stevie Nicks aside. No one comes close to Kate Bush. I discovered her and women in general in '84, when I was ten. She was dancing around in the video for Running up that Hill, while being both scary and beautiful.
