Post HBP additions to HP Pronounciation Guide

Scholastic's Official Harry Potter pronunciation guide has been updated to include various references and characters from 'Half-Blood Prince'. The list will obviously contain spoilers from the sixth book so please do not go to it if you've not yet finished the novel.

I've never known how to pronounce apparition, and it's not on the list! How annoying. Anyone got any suggestions as to how to say it, and disapparition too, coz It's starting to bug me!

I don't get why they're making such a big deal. Everyone says it differently no mater howmany times you hear it.

That's very funny, never seen it before...did have a couple of diff ideas about some of the pronounciation, but it's funny. Do agree with HOSAgirl though...everyone pronounces things diffirently

This was really helpful. I had NO idea how to say Horcrux until I went to the guide.

The pronunciation guide is cool, but I think some of them aren't pronounced properly.
For one thing, I highly doubt 'knut' is pronounced 'k-newts'. I always though it was 'nut'.
Also, I never thought Firenze was 'Feer-en-zee'... I thought 'Fer-n's'. But I guess that's just me.
