Arabic, Anyone?

Does anyone here speak Arabic?

I believe that the word "muna" (please pardon the lousy transliteration) means "wish".  I'm trying to confirm that, along with figuring out the pronunciation.  Is it myoo'-nuh?  myoo'-nah?  moo'nuh?  moo'nah?  Something else?

Many thanks to anyone who can help!

Muna is the plural of munyah, so it means "wishes" or "desires". A simple approximation of the pronunciation would be moo-nah (with the oo like that in 'boot').

Are you on the BroadsBar yahoo group? A couple of gals there should know. If not try joysofresearch AT yahoogroups DOT com.

The latter is moderated to keep high school kids from getting writers to research term papers for them.
