I dunno what English you're speaking that Mukao would be "Mew-kei-o" lol. It would be "mu-kow" if it was an English word, imo.Sikon wrote:I doubt it. Names should be pronounced the same way as in their language of origin. (For example, Mukao is pronounced Moo-kah-o, even though if it was an English name, it would be pronounced Mew-kei-o). The translation of the English and German initial H as G is a historical Russian translation tradition. Here, they have no excuse.
In any case, the names should be pronounced consistently. As it stands, for example, Irina is variously pronounced as Eye-rina and Ee-rina.
Pronunciation of "Igor"
