[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s so crazy to see people acting like Hawn-uh isn’t a completely normal (and original) pronunciation. Yes Hannah is a more common way to say it in the US but in Jewish and ***Muslim tradition*** (and Japanese) Hana the way OP has it is incredibly widespread. I pity people’s small worlds [/quote] It’s crazy that you so confidently and with such aplomb speak on behalf of 2 billion people. What Muslim tradition are you referring to for pronouncing the name Hana? That of Muslims in the USA? Or Central Asia? Malaysia? Pakistan? Saudi Arabia? Nigeria? Egypt? You’re lumping together billions of people with different cultures and native languages. I also can’t speak for all the 2 billion Muslims and their tradition, but can tell you that at least in Arabic, the name Hana comes from Al-Hanaa which means the bliss. And the “a” in “ha” is “aa” no “aw”. [/quote]
