I'm going to the Philippines Cauayan Mission speaking Tagalog. It's a lot like Spanish so those two years in high school will pay off, finally. I found out a guy in my new singles ward went to my mission and he was nice enough to help me accurately pronounce my mission, which is great since I said it twice in my mission prep class and someone called me out because I said it different each time. WHOOPS.
Joseph said it is pronounced like this:
Cow-a-yawn with the emphasis on the Cow.
Good luck.
Also, I get to wear flip flops on p-days or rainy days. Nylons only sometimes. What a great, great thing.
