I am meeting someone called Ewa later today and I’m not sure how I should be pronouncing it. Would it be like Ava?
Ewa don’t know?
No, I don’t! That’s why I made this thread!
My mum has a friend called Ewa, I believe you say it like ‘ever’
Thanks Funky
I’m here to help (during business hours)
Its actually pronounced ‘Clive’
This doesn’t seem right but you’re usually a very trustworthy and serious person so I’ll take you at face value, thanks!
Just keep calling them homie instead.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I love stuff like this actually. V solutions oriented approach
Would just introduce myself, pronouncing my own name, they would respond by introducing themselves.
A lot of people from other countries I virtually meet through work I’ll just straight up ask them now how they pronounce their name.
Not decided if it’s mildly rude or not yet. Last week a guy called ‘Dave’ seemed baffled.
Ask them how to pronounce their name, I’d be really charmed if someone asked me how to pronounce my name
Well, she just left me a voicemail to ask to reschedule so I ain’t meeting her after all and she pronounced it “Ay-ver”
Cheers
Bon Ewa
Yeah, that sort of thing I guess
Back on again now.
Cheers.
Goodness me! They’ve changed their minds now!
And now the Jubilee line is suspended so I can’t make it now! What a mess!
Ewa!? (“You what!?”)
