The word is Mlcak. Here outside of Houston, Tx, we have a road with that name and it has peaked my interest. I know its a Czech surname, so obviously the road is named after someone. But I can't find anywhere, how to pronounce it. Can anyone help? Thank you very much, in advance.
"ml-chak" or "mull-chak" with the "u" sounding as in "uh" and pronounced very quickly (the "uh" sound really isn't there, but most Americans find it easier to pronounce things of this sort by placing it there--Czechs have an affinity for omitting vowels ). The vowel sound of the "a" is an "ah" sound and is pronounced for a longer duration.
