No, I presume it uses an actual "H" sound, so "ha" would be the first syllable. Some languages don't have an "h" sound, so I guess I'd understand if that's a problem for those of you without it.

I pronounce it with two syllables hwa-cha. Audible 'h' before the 'w'.

NM.....You mean it's quite tight, or you want it shut?

Vince.....yeh thanks. And this is a very good moment to give partial credit to Vince278 for this excellent poll. I guess it's time we started our own mutual admiration society

I always think Fozzie Bear when pronouncing Hwach'a. Regardless of the correct way to pronounce it, I will always say "Wocka wocka."

I apologize for bringing up the topic! (see the Curragh poll)

Anyhow, I pronounce it either whah'-cha (where 'wh' is pronounced as a single consanant combining w and h) or h-wah'-cha. The ' indicates the stressed syllable.

I'd rather have it tight instead of shut.

And this is also a good moment to give partial credit for the partial credit that was partially credited. You know what they say: Great minds think alike.
