Help[Opinions] I don't see... (m)
in reply to a message by Sofia
I didn't say I would want a name to be pronounced in the original language, but the exact opposite: I think it's easier and OK and mostly even better to pronounce a name from a different country not in the original language, but in the language of the country you live in. That's why I thought it was strange to pronounce Sonja "SAWN-ya" in English, and not "SAWN-ja".

Oh, I thought that when you said 'respective country' that you meant the country of origin and not the country/language in which the name is being used. Sorry!

Oh, that was the misunderstanding ;).
