[Opinions] Re: Rachel
in reply to a message by Canielle
I guess they want the "ch" to be a chi? Or they're trying to Anglicize the Hebrew "ch" in a 'harder' way? Or they're pronouncing it kind of like German but with the emphasis on the other syllable?
I'd like it if the person was from a place where that would be an intuitive pronunciation, but where I live it would be awkward. I get why someone wouldn't want the Raquel spelling (it's very 70'-80's) but maybe Rakel or Rakhel?
