    Nikoloz Tskitishvili

    I believe it is like this:

    Nick-oh-loh-se T-skit-ish-vill-e

    With the T in Tskitishvili likely being silent.

    I'm thinking "skittish feeling," as in: "I'm feeling skittish about drafting this kid." ;)

    Hey guys!

    I'm from Slovenia and Tskitishvili played here for one of our clubs (Slovan) until the mid-season when he was transfered to Benetton.

    For all you wandering how his name is pronnounced and I gotta say, mfclark was pretty close.


    This would be the rigth pronnounciation:

    Nick-oh-loss T-skit-ish-villy

    T is indeed silent.
