ArchivesLykke and Xiang - Pronunications
I'm curious how you pronounce these names. Lykke is Danish and Xiang is Chinese.

Lykke
I'm not Danish, but I assume Lykke would be pronounced LUY-ku. (I believe the y is pronounced like French ue or German ü.)

Xiang is pronounced shang.

Xiang: SHeeAHNG, the ee very short (which is why I wrote it as one syllable, the A in Chinese is AH.
But of course due to the tone differences, we'll never be able to write down the proper pronunication.

This is me speaking there, after recording it, so don't mind my voice. It is a bit rusty today.
I hope it works and you get the general idea.
