Thanks! :slight_smile:

Marguerite is my full name!

Mar-geh-reet is how I pronounce it (but a little more [name_u]French[/name_u]).

You have a beautiful name! And thank you, I’m always curious as to how it should be pronounced :slight_smile:

So this was fun! :grin: I did the long list from [name_u]July[/name_u] 7, plus everyone’s additions since then. Sorry for a couple of pauses and corrections (my brain had to catch up with my mouth… oh and the last name really threw me on pronunciation - apologies if I butchered it). [name_f]My[/name_f] voice was also getting tired toward the end.

For context, I’m Australian (although I often get asked “where I’m from” so I don’t know that “sound” particularly Australian). Heritage-wise, I am half [name_m]Dutch[/name_m] and the other half is Scottish, Irish, [name_f]English[/name_f]. [name_f]My[/name_f] first language is [name_f]English[/name_f], and second language is (now very rusty) Spanish.

Update: it uploads the sound and then gives me an error message :sob::thinking: I’ll keep trying…

Maybe try multiple times when you try to post a response? I’ve noticed that it usually works around the fourth or fifth time that I try to upload a recording.

I’d like to share my audio but I can’t, how did you upload yours, berries?

yeah I haven’t been able to upload anything, pictures from my files, pictures from the internet, video or audio files, even after trying literally 20 times, for the past week or so

@katinka sorry you’re probably swamped but I just wanted to notify you :wink:

Ok, I think I got it! I did your list because it was the first one. I’m spanish, born and raise here in the south of Spain so I barely have any contact with english speaking people hahahaha Take that on account hearing my awful pronunciation!

I know, I’m sorry! I have nudged the tech side about this multiple times now but will do so again.

@_thelittlefairywren @UnderTheRainbow @EJpuddlejumper The audio file upload problem is fixed according to @katinka! [name_m]Just[/name_m] thought I’d let everyone know :slight_smile:

This thread is everything I’ve wanted in life. I would love to take part but all the lists seem to be about a month old so don’t feel like I could contribute anymore.

If anyone ever needs any Spanish/Mexican name pronunciation tag me though!

@sweetcaroline You’re absolutely welcome to contribute! I’d love to hear your pronunciations if you feel like recording!

I feel exactly like you when it comes to pronunciation threads like these, so in addition to recent threads, I’ve contributed to some threads that are several years old!
