Re:Pronouncing non-English names for English speakers by mynegation on Monday July 26, 2021 @09:05AM (#27958867)
The proper pronunciation of my name requires an emphasis that is not on a first syllable, rolling R, and palatalization of a consonant in the middle. Even if I tell people how to pronounce it properly, repeating it back to me would be too much to ask from people who never palatalized a consonant in their life. My point is: I don’t grimace and I don’t bother.
