That is quite an impressive name.

king_coffee June 30 2009, 20:27:26 UTC

It is, isn't it?

And the pronunciation doesn't even match the spelling.

letxequalnull June 30 2009, 20:28:24 UTC

Thus rendering it at least tolerably pronounceable then?

king_coffee June 30 2009, 20:30:43 UTC

Well, I speak the language, so it's all pronounceable to me.

letxequalnull June 30 2009, 20:33:19 UTC

That would make it considerably easier.

king_coffee June 30 2009, 20:36:38 UTC

Even if it is an unfair advantage.

letxequalnull June 30 2009, 20:37:34 UTC

Perhaps, but I would consider it an allowable one, unfair though it may be.

king_coffee June 30 2009, 20:39:00 UTC

That's very kind of you.

But the ability to speak more than one language is always useful.

letxequalnull June 30 2009, 20:41:01 UTC

I agree wholeheartedly.

king_coffee June 30 2009, 20:43:55 UTC

Do you speak more than one?

letxequalnull June 30 2009, 20:46:05 UTC

No, although I would hardly mind learning another.

king_coffee June 30 2009, 20:47:36 UTC

Did you have one in mind?

letxequalnull June 30 2009, 21:09:53 UTC

I am not precisely familiar with many.
