Hi.

A role-playing friend of mine asked me for the proper pronounciation of two
chinese/japanese words from White Wolf's role-playing game "Kindred of the
East".

Unfortunatly I have no idea of these languages.

The words are

Kuei-jin: mixture of Chinese and Japanese. "kuei" should be Chinese for
something like "specter" and "jin" is Japanese. Don't ask me why the authors
mixed that.

The other is "quincunx" which is Chinese.

It would be very nice of you to help me.

Stefan
