In Argentine Spanish, the surname Palacios is pronounced as pah-LAH-syohss (or pah-LAH-shohss / pah-LAH-zhohss depending on the regional accent).The main difference in Argentina comes from how they pronounce the "c" and the "s". Key Pronunciation Rules The "Pala" part: Pronounced as pah-LAH. The emphasis is on the second syllable. The "cios" part: In Argentina, the "c" is pronounced exactly like an "s" (called seseo). It does not use the "th" sound found in Spain.
So basically Pa-Lah-Si-Os people. Think of that when thinking up an anthem.
