Default How to pronounce "Qatar".

How to pronounce Qatar | CNN Travel

I am never going to be able to do this properly! I could never even role by Spanish "Rs".

I did have an Iraqi friend while in the Graduate Librarianship program at the U of Denver in 1983-1984. He was from the U of Mosul in Iraq. He worked at their library for decades.

I do recall he tried to teach me some Arabic phrases but I never quite got them right.
