I have a question about the pronunciation.

I come across a name of a place "Potsurnentsi", a village from Bulgaria, when translating English article.

I'd like to know how to pronounce it, because, as a English-Japanese translator, I need to translate it into Japanese letters based on its sound.

I first posted this question on Kudoz, but the moderator kindly recommended that I post it here in this forum.

The pronunciation of this name (written with Latin letters by the way, even though in Bulgaria the Cyrillic alphabet is used) is:

"ts" as in "tsetse fly"
"u" as in "church"

the other letters should not be a problem.

I agree with Atanas and I can add that the accent is on "u" in Bulgarian if pronunciation is concerned.
