Have always wondered... how do you pronounce that name?
Er no, it's Fooks - German for Fox I believe.
Yes, as in Fuchsloch (pron. Fookslock) = german for "foxhole". Bars/Pubs are sometimes called this.
Thought it was one or the other - German A level is a distant memory. Cheers.
The "fu" is pretty much like the "fu" in a word that's banned here pronounced by a northerner. The "chs" is a gutteral german syllable that most people who didn't learn German as a child can't pronounce.
It's pronounced 'Fuchs'. HTH
ETA - Ok. You have it above, really. The 'ch' is pretty much the same as a Scotsman would use to pronounce 'Loch'. Stick 'Foo' in front of the glottal 'ch', and you're there.
