[Opinions] Re: Ancient Roman names
in reply to a message by Malin
What language do you speak natively? I was thinking of European languages like Spanish and German, with the AIR sound.

Swedish. (Which is an European language too, but not one you were thinking of I guess. ;)) I've studied both Spanish (2 years) and German (7 years) though, and definitely think it's a more "deery" than "airy" sound (even though they're both more "airy" than Swedish). But describing the sounds of my third and fourth languages in my second language is confusing and perhaps shouldn't be trusted ... :S
