Pronunciation[edit]

What is the French pronunciation? The article for the Dahomey kingdom says the English pronunciation is /dəˈhoʊmi/, but my naive assumption for French would be /daʔoˈmeɪ/ – I've never heard it spoken. Anyway, it should be in the article lead. And if the Yon pronunciation is phonemically distinct we should include it too. I'm cross-posting something similar on the talk pages of that article and Benin. SamuelRiv (talk) 03:15, 6 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
