What's the pronunciation of the word Goa'uld from SG1?
What's the phonetic alphabet (text/pronunciation) of the fictional word Goa'uld from the (TV show)/(fictional universe) Stargate?
It seems to have a interestingly and unusually large amount of distinct sounds, perhaps as many as to be similar to "gah-augh-ouwld".

It's simple: you learn Hungarian, and then pronounce it as if it were a Hungarian word (ignoring the apostrophe). Wait, what do you mean learning Hungarian isn't simple? I've spoken it since I was 2 years old, it can't be that hard...

I'm not a phonetician1, so this is going to be a very amateurish answer from a phonetics perspective.
Different characters on the show typically used one of two pronunciations2:
go-aah-oold, typically used by the System Lords, Tok'ra, Jaffa, and nerds like Daniel Jackson
goo-ld, typically used by other military characters, like Jack O'Neill and General Hammond
Just based on who typically uses the different pronunciations, I'm inclined to suggest that go-aah-oold is the correct one; always trust a people when they use their own name for themselves.
Dan Castellaneta's character, the eponymous "Citizen Joe", also feels quite strongly about the pronunciation:
Wikipedia user Puellanivis suggests the proper IPA rendering as [ˈgoɑ.ʔuːld]:
I'll readily agree with anyone who says that the common pronunciations of "GOOLD", and "go-OOLD" is mispronouncing the word, but the pronunciation listed in IPA: [ˈgoʊ˘uːld] is not entirely accurate either. From the correct pronunciations that I have heard, the ' in fact stands for a glottal stop, which would make it consistent with Arabic transliterations. (How one would resolve this with the name "Teal'c", you got me, my best guess is that who ever was making up the names, wasn't a linguist.)
From what I hear, the most accurate pronunciation would be: [ˈgoɑ.ʔuːld].
1 Hey, I learned a new word!
2 With some allowances for regional accents. Jack, for example, is canonically from Illinois3 and played by a Minnesotan, usually pronounces it goold. Compare to General Hammond, canonically a Texan and played by a Missourian, who usually says gewld.
3"The Fifth Man":
O'Neill: Where're you from, Tyler? Texas
Lt. Tyler: Mostly. We moved around a lot. You?
O'Neill: Born in Chicago, raised in Minnesota.

My background is almost the exact reverse of yours: I am a phonetician, but I have never seen the series and have no idea who the Goa’uld actually are. I’ve only ever seen or thought of it as a generically alien-sounding name, and therefore one whose spelling is quite likely to represent its pronunciation quite closely. As such, I have always instincitively pronounced it [ɡoɑˈuld], which is quite close to what Puellanivis gives (only difference is I instinctively stressed the last syllable instead of the first and used a short [u] instead of a long one).

@JanusBahsJacquet - Interesting perspective of a non-watcher who has never heard it pronounced, especially with the short u in your mind's ear. P.s.- too bad you're not a Phoenician. A Phoenician phonetician would be pretty cool.

There are several points in the episode the pronunciation is actually mentioned. I feel like everyone changed the way it was pronounced from that of previous episodes. Also I think it is because they changed timelines. Episode 20 is my reasoning.

I came to the internet to figure out why the pronunciation of this is bothering me... I am watching sg1 season 1 ep 21. There are several points in the episode the pronunciation is actually mentioned. I feel like everyone changed the way it was pronounced from that of previous episodes. Also I think it is because they changed timelines. Episode 20 is my reasoning.

I came to the internet to figure out why the pronunciation of this is bothering me... I am watching sg1 season 1 ep 21. There are several points in the episode the pronunciation is actually mentioned. I feel like everyone changed the way it was pronounced from that of previous episodes. Also I think it is because they changed timelines. Episode 20 is my reasoning.

It's simple: you learn Hungarian, and then pronounce it as if it were a Hungarian word (ignoring the apostrophe). Wait, what do you mean learning Hungarian isn't simple? I've spoken it since I was 2 years old, it can't be that hard...
