Hi Richard,
Muonionalusta is pronounced quite close to it's spelling with some focus on
the first part "Muon".
Anyway, since I'm Swedish I also find it quite difficult to pronounce this
Finnish word (very much an exercise for your lips and tongue).
Perhaps, a good idea would be to take place in a comfortable chair and do
some home practice in the pronunciation, after having some 2 - 3 drams of a
nice Scottish malt Whisky. For this particular purpose I can warmly
recommend Highland Park 18 Year ;-)
Happy hunting!
