Hello everyone and welcome back at English with Lucy.
Today I want to talk with you about commonly pronounced incorrectly
baby names, which are usually given to boys.
This is a video that will help
with the English language and pronunciation.
To further improve on this.
I highly recommend you try Audible.
Link in the video description.
You can get a 30-day free trial.
Thus, the entire audiobook.
and I have a few recommendations
books with British pronunciation.
I also have one of the American pronunciation.
so do not miss it.
Let’s start with video.
The first name that I want to talk
It is actually Hispanic (Spanish) Joaquín.
As Joaquín Joaquín Dead.
In Spanish it should be Joaquin, but the English-language area
we tend to pronounce as “uakín”.
So, for example, “uakín” Phoenix
does not sound good, it does not slip of the tongue.
Secondly – some of you is that you laugh
because you know how it’s pronounced –
but I, I will admit, most of my childhood
thinking that it’s pronounced as Seen, Seen.
You know actor Sean Bean. I thought it
Seen Bean. Yes: it is pronounced “son”.
Further, and it depends on the parents,
either Stephen “stɛfən” or Steven “stiːvən”.
It’s up to them, so just ask.
Another is a bit confusing,
since the pronunciation can be any.
I guess you say it wrong, and therefore
it is best to simply ask the question how to pronounce
your name.
It may be ” ‘i: lijəs’ ” eljəs”
It may be “ə’la: jəs”.
They are all variations?
I guess you could say i ‘and’ la: jəs “
just ask.
Other – anything beginning with X is difficult –
is difficult. This is normally pronounced
“Zandə”.
Further, we have, in fact pronounced with an “x”
and it is “kzæviei”
But i can meet someone who says, “zæviei”
What about this?
It’s like Noel (French) Christmas.
It may be – I’ve met a man named Noel “nou’el”
but it was a woman, but normally a male version
this name is “Noul”.
And this is only the Irish version of the name Owen “ouen”
I remember – remember someone’s name Eoghan Quigg?
He starred in the X-factor of about 2000
and I think that was very nice.
Yeah, I remember his name, and I think “Johan”
but not, perhaps, “ouen”.
And another – it’s “lu’i” or “lu’is”?
You’ll have to ask those people,
it all depends on how their parents
They decided to call. Unfortunately, at this
I’m a little short.
The last thing we have here is “džejdn”
We know that now, thanks to Jayden Smith,
But a few years ago, people were pretty confused
and we heard “Ja: Day,” “džæden”
but no, it seems that it should be “džejden”.
So that’s all for today
hour pronunciation. I hope you liked it and hope
you’ve learned something.
And if you have a name that is often
erroneously written or pronounced, let me know in the comments
and I will have pity.
My very easy to pronounce, even though I
Many students called “varnish”
or write “Lusy” which is a mystery to me,
because the name of the English Channel with Lucy.
There’s right, I’ll say so, I am writing you,
so it’s really sloppy.
