[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get it; you want it to rhyme with Botswana and not Banana. It sounds unnecessarily pretentious to me, like the Annie pronunciation cited above.[/quote] No, in German every letter is pronounced. There are no silent letters used to modify the pronunciation of other letters. Anne is pronounced Ann-eh, not Annie though. If the person is really German, that is. Doesn't sound like it somehow.[/quote]
