    Blah-hajj sounds like it could be more accurate though. As long as you don’t pronounce it like blahhash or something. J as in Jerma.

      Blow and high are useful examples cause they sneak in the rhythm and timing better than trying to like write out that you have to take it a little slower with the words.

      With blah and hajj people really rush both words as well as the rhythm between them and that kind of makes it sound worse than if you get the delivery right but just have weird pronounciation of the words themselves.
