[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mireille [/quote] Any other 80s/90s kids learn French through the Mireille and Robert stories? I think it was French in Action. My flag on that name is most of my American classmates couldnt get the pronunciation down properly; they would say meer-eh. The french had a little inflection on the end of the first syllable that i cant really describe. [/quote] I’m the PP who wrote Mireille in the list above — yes, I heard it on French in Action, which I used to watch religiously!! (And then became a major Francophile, speak French and majored in French lit.) I love that name so much! I agree that Mireille is quite hard to say correctly so maybe it’s a nonstarter. Mirabelle or Mirabella is nice and easy to say in the U.S. [/quote] Mirabelle?!?! Her name is May Ling!!!![/quote]
