Re: Arguments you hate

[(Anonymous)]

Of course people should make an effort to pronounce foreign names correctly, but sometimes people simply cannot say certain sounds or combinations that they didn't grow up saying.

My grandmother was from Ukraine. She spoke Ukrainian, Russian, German, and English. But she could never say either "TH" sound in English, because those sounds do not exist in the languages she grew up with.

This can happen with different dialects in the same language. I've noticed that people from the Northern parts of the East Coast can say the A in "apple" or "cat" before an R. I am from Maryland and can't, no matter how hard I try, and a lot of people from farther south don't seem able to either.

I'm also from Maryland and huh, you're right. I know I can say it because I just tried, but I can also tell from trying that I never use that combination naturally. If someone used it when they told me their name I'd probably pronounce it like "air."

Re: Arguments you hate

What do you mean by "before an r"? Can you give an example?

Re: Arguments you hate

Someone from New England posted that they pronounce the first syllable of 'arrogant' with the A in apple, but I say it like "air."
