[Facts] How are these Irish names pronounced?
Being from Holland and totally unacquainted with the Irish language, I wonder how the following Irish names are pronounced:Rórdán
RuaidhríEspecially the last one seems to be very difficult. :SCan someone tell me how they are pronounced? Thanks in advance! :)Oh, and isn't there a Latinized version of these Irish names, btw? That would be lots easier for me. ;)Greetings,Lucille
