How is your name pronounced?

:) nice topic

try to guess pronouncation of my first midle and last name:)

my first name is Qarim-Fəris (double name- but mostly i'm using the first one)

my second name is Rəmil-uli (Rəmil's my father's name "uli" means "son of")

my last name is Şəfigulla

so it's "Qarim-Fəris Rəmil-uli Şəfigulla"

it's a Tatar name (little tip it's almost same as Turkish, we're sharing very similiar languages, both from turkic language family but different branches)

:)

P:S: also try to pronounce this "Marat Mөbin-uli Safin"

it's a name of wordwide famous sportsman-)

Oh man, you leave in a country I didnt even know that existed.
 
they always pronounce my last name wrong. It's supposed to be Waits (like Tom Waits the singer)

but the teachers use to accidentally call me Watts. I hated it
 
My name is Joe. It's pronounced JA O. It's a hard one. Teachers always got it wrong in class and all the kids would tease me. LoL. kiddin.
 
So, my last name is 'Bail'. Ba-ale, Easy right? Apparently it's too easy. People get cautious about pronouncing it and say, 'ball', 'bile', 'Ba-eel'. -.-'

And yes, I've heard, "Bail out of jail" and other such puns, so please don't go there lol


My Grandparents have better ones though. "Los-ski-ah-vo" Loschiavo (Italian) and "Arm-Yell" Almhjell (I haven't damn clue why it's spelt that way, and apparently my Great grandfather doesn't either, as each of his brothers spelt it different when they all migrated from Norway).
