Help[Facts] Re: Pronounciation of Welsh name
in reply to a message by Elphi
You mean pronunciation, not grammar. :)
I'm not completely sure of the quality of the vowels, but I do know that a single "f" in Welsh is supposed to be pronounced like the English "v". The English "f" sound must be spelled with a double f in Welsh, so for the second pronunciation to be correct the name would have to be spelled Myffanwy.
