OK, James forced me into this thread.

Pronunciation of newly coined English words is notoriously unstandardized, but I agree with those who notice the similarity between "geography" (which I pronounce /สคiหหˆษ‘หษกษนษ™fiห/) and "neography" (hence /niหหˆษ‘หษกษนษ™fiห/). There's no /oห/ as in "go" in either of these words, not for me anyway.

So the latter would be ๎š–๎šฒ๎šฐฬ๎šš๎š’๎šฟ๎šฆ๎šฒ, or really ๎š–๎šฒ๎šฐฬ๎šš๎š’๎šฐ๎šฆ๎šฒ as the schwa should be used minimally. Don't forget the accent on multi-syllable words.

This is probably not much farther out of scope than some other recent posts.
