[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please tell me again about when you meet people for the first time and they can’t pronounce your name!! My name is 2 syllables and people butcher it. “ What is your name again….Soo qui, Soo queee, Soo-kee” ? Why??????????[/quote] Maybe you say your name too quickly or with an accent to it. I know people that say their name at “normal speed” rather than breaking it down more slowly even when they know it is a trickier one for Americans to pronounce. Also people who have no accent it seems then all of sudden have a very strong one when they say their name that makes it hard for me to understand it - also because it isn’t broken down into syllable sounds again. If people are asking it is because they want to get it right rather than just avoiding saying your name because they can’t tell how to pronounce it. [/quote]
