> In the Karakoram (pronounced keh·ruh·kaw·ruhm) Range—a mountainous region straddling the borders of Pakistan, India, Afghanistan, Tajikistan, and China…

Non-sequitur but no one pronounces it like that in those regions.

On another note katsu (pronounced cat-sue) is a dish you should try in Japan.

I don't know where they even got that pronunciation from. The wikipedia page says "Karakoram (English: /ˌkɑːrəˈkɔːrəm, ˌkær-/, Urdu: [kaːɾaːkoːɾəm])"

none of which is [kerəkɑːrəm] as the author suggests

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karakoram

Yeah, I agree. Funnily enough, Katsu isn't pronounced that way either XD (it's pronounced cawt-sue)
