  Hi,
  For menilmontant :
  you can say "men" (plural of man) -il- (like in ill)
  the last two phonems are hard for english speaking people. It close to what you've written but it more a "closed" sound.
  I'll post a mp3 file once I'm back from work.
  If you have other requests, post them
  If I recall correctly some people wondered about Gitane and Reinhardt. I'll record those ones too.

  Ramsezaz,
  
  Thanks! Yes, I understand the "more closed" sound idea. Which syllable has the accent?

  The pronunciations for some gypsy jazz tunes that have a french name.
  
  I had fun recording these so if you want more , ask
  
  PS :
  I realised I mispelled "Douce Ambiance" that's a "ambiance" in french not ambience
