pronounce that bird name - help

Ever since joining this forum and doing online research, I have come to realize just how many species of fids there are. I have been getting caught up in trying to pronounce some of those names. I was hoping some of you can take a few minutes to post the name of a bird then how to pronounce it
eg eclectus - eh-klec-tus. I just learned that one lol. I was calling it e-leck-tus.

Here are some other hard ones I can think of. I am sure you can come up with some others as well.

caique (I have been calling it "cake" lol)
pionus
timneh
Poicephalus
Touracos
Pyrrhura (conure)
