    quick question for the swedish people

    how do you pronounce Ohlins...do you pronounce the H as "ch" in O -ch- lins

    or the H is silent and you pronounce it like like O-lins

    sorry to the mods i know this has "almost" nothing to do with rallying and you could delete the thread if the question is answered...

    I google it and even tried to find a swede in youtube to say it but couldn't find anything, only british and american people and i don't trust those.
