Thanks!

How about where is the accent?

I have been saying "su DO ku"

But I am wondering if maybe it is "SU do ku"

Actually, neither. In Japanese all syllables are accented equally. Very difficult for us native English speakers to get right.

Thanks Newguy! That is a cool piece of information! Yes it does take some getting used to. I am sitting here trying to say sudoku without emphasis on any syllable...not easy!

I am the guest above who asked about the syllabic emphasis and then responded to newguy. Laughing Then I read the poll about whether to allow guests to post messages and promptly registered!!!
