Believe it or not, these things don’t get delivered to my email as they come out.

Again, thanks for contributing to the discussion in a meaningful and positive way.

Talked to a Russian friend of mine. According to him, Fedor’s name should be pronounced (and Fedor says it this way I guess, can’t tell with the background noise) Fyodr.

I'm stilling saying

FAY – DOOR.

This is America, damnit! Seriously though… I’d sound like a tard if I pronounced it like Fyo- dor.

yeah, thats the thing about foreign languages. When you think you sound like an idiot, you probably have it right. I had to get over that hump in both Russian and German.

Why does he say his last name first? Are Americans in the minority by doing it the other way?

by MMAInFeRioRiTy on Nov 17, 2009 6:03 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

it's how we say names...

in other countries (guess russia is included) the family name comes first

I thought it was mostly south eastern Asian countries but apparantly Russia is involved too. Anyone know if its the whole slavic language group?
