Nobody outside the US should have to. I imagine most people couldn't name 3 regions in Portugal.

2 were spot on, "Algave" was just missing an "r", still very recognizable. "Durro" made me laugh because your version is closer to our word for donkey (burro). :)

That's probably why I spelled it like that :D

It's still not too far! I imagine Douro gets mispronounced as "Dooru" because the sounds for O and U don't match in English. It sounds closer to "dough-ru".

I think I've only heard them pronounced correctly once or twice. Games should always come with pronunciation guides.

I'd love that. I always brace for impact when a Portuguese word shows up in a video review. Vinhos, Coimbra, Arraial, Masmorra. I don't think I've heard anyone get it right.
