  • Well I grew up in Mexico and I will do my best to try to americanize the name
    "solo-tsi-cuintle" I think it just looks scary writen because of the X and the Z. But then again I was born in Oaxaca. how would you pronounce that?, the best way is
    "hua-ha-ca". Well I can't do no better than that, I havent liven in Mexico since I was 14 yrs old.
