Reply to: Portuguese pronunciation help by lcgirl20
European Portuguese:

Heitor - AY-tor (tor as in neighbour)
Márcio - MAHR-see-oo
Salomão - suh-loo-MOW (nasal sound, very hard to describe. Ow bears a very tiny resemblance to it. It's as if you're saying un and ow at the same time)
Viriato - vee-ree-AH-too
