quicko: vietnam
Pronounced Viet-naam here instead of Viet-nahm. Sigh. There's also a slight something about "Samoa," but I can't quite work out what it is. It sounds slightly funny, but possibly more correct ... which is more than I can say for "Vietnaam."

I think most Australians would say /Sa MO uh/. But I've noticed Samoans will say something closer to /SAH mo uh/
They probably know how to say the name of their own country better than we do.
