Town Names and Subsequent Pronounciations
I had to write this guide when I heard someone say, in no fault of their own, Entree DuOcks, so here is a simple table of difficult french town names and how to pronounce them.
Everon:
Saint Pierre: San Peeair

Entre-Deux: ontruh deuh -> The x is silent and the sound is kind of like a groan, it is hard to explain in text but if you hear it youll understand.

Montignac: Montinyak

Villeneuve: Veell - neuve -> again the eu sound in french is like in between an uh and an eh sound like the sound you make when you're not sure what to order at the drive through.

Meaux: Im pretty sure its pronounced like Moe

Saint-Philippe: San phil-eep

Lamentin: Lament - awn

Chotain: Showtan

Le Moule: Le Moole

Lacourt: La Coor

Beauregard: pronounced the same as the name but it is Bow regard like the bow hunting tool

Arleville: is Probably pronounced arrr - ville

As a french i mostly agree and i'm glad that you're trying to pronounce it correctly !

Maybe Chotain is more like "Sho - tun", with the "un" like in unstable
Same thing for Saint-Pierre and Saint-Phillipe, more looks like "S-un Peeair" and "S-un Phil-eep", with the same "un" sound than in Chotain (and not like the Sun), and also for Lamentin : "Lament-un"

For these, if you stricly pronounce it like in "Unstable", it would be great, but if you want to sound more french for theses, try to remove the " ñ " sound. If needed, go to google translate and listen for the sound "Un" in french (who's mean "One" in french, it's a very simple sound).

For Entre-Deux, remember that you have to keep stricly the same pitch of voice for "..Tre" and "Deux", it should be low, like in "doe". Finally, it should more looks like "Antroe Doe". And also same protip as before : to sound more "french", try to remove the " ñ " sound, it really worth the cost.
