Answer 1

I could try to sound them out for you, but I'm not sure that would be the best way, as you may not 'read' them the way I intend. The best way to actually hear the correct pronunciation would be to go to www.dictionary.com and type in the words. There is an option to actually hear the word spoken in correct English. Hope that helps.

Also, I noticed some spelling errors:
Bureau, not boureau
Questionnaire, not questionaire (2 n's)

If I have been a criminal expert, i would not inevitably have any concept of the technical words utilized by utilising chemists. Pronunciations fluctuate from u . s . a . to u . s . a ., and each and each is right interior the country. Spellings are frequently a similar or very comparable (e.g., shade / shade).
