[Opinions] Re: Changing the pronunciation of names
in reply to a message by Malk
I am guilty of using anglicized pronounciations a lot. For example, the Japanese name Sakura has emphasis on the first syllable in Japan. However, I (and other English-speakers) often place emphasis on the second syllable. I know that's not how Sakura is pronounced in Japan, but I still pronounce it the anglicized way.
