Pronounce Bocote???
Ok all you sawdust covered Woodaholics...What is the correct pronunciation for Bocote  ? I've looked all over the internet (well, most of it) and can't find a dictionary/encylopedia that has it listed as the PRIMARY word. I've found it referenced as a common name for Cordia but no clue on phonetics  .
Any help? Thanks

Re: Pronounce Bocote???
I heard Sam Maloof say bo-ko-tay (both Os with a long 'O', the emphasis on the 'ko').
