It"s amazing to keep in mind that numerous Spanish name room of germanic origen due to the fact that the Iberian peninsula was ruled for plenty of centuries by a german tribe dubbed the Visigoth. My name Luis comes from Ludvic and names prefer Rodrigo = Roderic, Guillermo=Wilhelm,etc..What I uncover even an ext interesting that your Spanish-speaking friends have trouble pronounce Jeff. Over there are countless words in Spanish through a comparable sound. I"ve never heard the word chef mispronounced in Spanish and that have to sound much much more like Jeff than Yeff. Perhaps they space trying to review your name prior to listening come it.

Your friends don"t have an obstacle pronouncing her name as "Yeff", therefore I indicate let it it is in as lengthy as you know they space addressing you. Ns was wonder if girlfriend pronounce your names, say, that have actually have a "trilled r" correctly-- as in Carlos, Roberto, Reyes-- as done in Spanish. Would certainly you express "Carlos" v the "r" in the an initial syllable "Car-" sounding prefer "car" (the vehicle) in English to finish up saying "Car-lose" v the "o" sounded out lengthy like in "most" which would be no be correct. If you have great Spanish pronunciation, 보다 my suggest is pointless, however if not, ns doubt any kind of Carlos or Roberto is walking to urge that you pronounce the "r" correctly. All they will certainly care about is the you deal with them respectfully.
