Seychelles (pronounced /se????l/ or IPA: [/se????lz/] in English and [se??l] in French)

(From Wikipedia).

Fro any given English speaker, it would probably depend on how much (if at all) he was influenced by a knowledge of French.

Lorenzo9 brought this Type it and Say it web page to our attention about a week ago.

Go here to listen to "Seychelles" in a better voice than the SpanD!ct dictionary speaker:

Text to Speech - "Seychelles"

After you click on the link, give it a few seconds to open the page a playback the sound

Well, the audio pronunciation guide on this site is given on the translation page: http://www.spanishdict.com/translate/seychelles

But it sounds like the English pronunciation. I don't know whether the Spanish one is different.
