How do you say this in Thai....?

Are there any Thai words that you are not sure how to pronounce? Now is your chance to have them read aloud by native Thai speakers. This will be a weekly column for the forums. During the week you can submit the words you would like to hear spoken by a Thai person. Then, at the end of the week, we will ask a native Thai speaker to read aloud all of these words.

* You are limited to FIVE words per person per week.
* The resulting file will be released here as a free mp3 download.

I realise you are asking for specific words but can I suggest any words beginining with the § sound? Those give me the most problems and I don't always get Ubonwan's pronounciation - I thought for a long time she was referring to her eldest sister as sister 'number one' then when she wrote it down it is her name '§Ç¹'.
