pronunciation question

[Yin Yang]

I have read that conch is pronounced "conk". I was curious as to the pronunciation of jitney. Also, are there any other words I should familiarize myself with before my trip?

Sailin' in June...

Don't know how to get the count down
But that's o.k.

Anyway!

I'm sorry for this silly email. I was thinking that this was exclusive slang for the Bahamas, but I've come to learn on my own that a dictionary proves to be quite helpful. For those viewing, enjoy this laugh on me!

Also same in the keys. If it helps "cay" is pronounced key.

Jitney is pronounced just like it looks: JIT-NEE

If your ship goes to Freeport, the resort area of Lucaya is pronounced: LOO-KI-YUH

Given the date of their post, it's safe to say that ship has sailed. ;) :D
