The Mance Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 I don't sweat details like that -- as long as they're not calling me "hey, shithead" I am fine. That is rude. Would it kill them to throw an "excuse me" or "pardon me" in there. "Hey" is just so abrupt. Though I would have to say I am not familiar with that pronunciation of "shithead." A dental fricative, you say? :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nymeria10k Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 If Mateusz is your name then go by Mateusz; you just might have to tell people how to pronounce it that's all. , I have to tell people how to pronounce my name sometimes (Siân) and I don't mind. Is it pronounced as 'sharn?' (with the ar sounding like 'are') I vaguely knew a girl called Sian once and I think that's how her name was pronounced, idk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
