[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you watch sports, American commentators butcher every name that isn't English. Hard to believe it from the country of immigrants. Then again, the names were changed and made easier for others to pronounce. Hardly ever the case with foreign born commentators. Two Spanish commentators were reading an Finno-Ugric name yesterday with umlaut in it, and the got it right. It's not like in English they don't have have the sound. It's the "a" in cat.[/quote] Great vowel shift. See Hilo.[/quote]
