Default How do you pronounce the races?

I'm kinda curious... in MOO2, I always talked about the "Sack-ruh" and the "Mursh-ens", until I found out from MOO3 (ech) that the "proper" pronunciations were "Suh-Kraw" and "Mur-Shawn"... So how do you pronounce the various SE races?

Amonkrie = Am-in-kree (accent on the "kree", much like "Amun-Ra")
Xiati = Zye-at-eee (as in "Encounter at Virumque", with accent on the "at")
Piundon = Pyun-don
Sallega = Sell-egg-uh (accent on the "egg")
Norak = Nor-ack (accent on the "nor")
Sergetti = Sir-get-eee (similar to "spaghetti"... will "Sergetti Spaghetti" become a new Phong's Head fad menu item? )
Drushocka = Drew-shock-uh (accent on the "shock")
XiChung = Zee-Chung (both syllables accented roughly equally)
Fazrah = Faz-ruh (accent on the "faz")
Toltayan = Tole-tuh-yann (accent on the "tole")

The rest are either fairly obvious or I forgot about them

edit: oh, how could I forget the Jraenar (Jray-nar, sounds sort of like "Drano")???
