pronunciation[edit]
Is there a reason the pronunciation of this name is irregular in stress and vowel length? An anon. has threatened to "ban" me for getting it wrong. — kwami (talk) 18:32, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
- I appreciate that, and suspect that our condescending IP may be a blocked or banned editor, but this is a reasonable ref. (We need to give RS a bit of leeway with pronunciations that aren't likely to ever appear in a dictionary.) Also, I've tried starting a discussion of the larger issue. — kwami (talk) 11:41, 12 April 2012 (UTC)
The current ref does, however, stress the şa rather than the gil. Prosody? — kwami (talk) 11:42, 12 April 2012 (UTC)
