Ummm

I didn't write that. I don't think I have ever touched the Dodge Magnum article. Are you sure that I am the person you are looking for? Karrmann 22:04, 12 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oh wait, yes I did. I inserted that when there was a lot of hype of Dodge entering Europe, I don't exactly remember where I got it, but it was mostly a rumor, as it doesn't seem that DaimlerChrysler is going to go through with it. Karrmann 22:18, 12 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

agassi

I respectfully disagree. If you look through Category:Surnames you will find a lot of articles set up that way, i.e. the header says that the surname usually belongs to a certain ethnicity or country and in the entries there are some that go against the heading. See as examples, Aanes, Abbadie, and Abramson. Let me know if you agree to the current edit. --Brewcrewer 14:37, 17 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

camus pronunciation

Hi. Thanks for correcting the pronunciation. Would you mind taking a look at the "nearest English equivalent" part for "y" on the French IPA page and confirm that it is pronounced "ca-mee"? Thanks again. --Quadalpha (talk) 00:04, 29 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The problem is that English completely lacks the sound. Old English had it, e.g. cyning (king). I would be hard pressed to find any close relative in Modern English. For that reason, the French IPA page only describes the sound: "rounded seen". I.e. the position of the mouth (tongue and jaws) is like "ee" in "seen" but the lips are rounded.
