Dr. Bapswent Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 So why do tv presenters continually have difficulty saying Vladimir Romanov's name? I know 28 is a challenge, and Ivaskevicuis aint easy either, but being a professional presenter, its thier job to get it right. It seems more like they feel the words are dirty and have to force them out thier mouths... I mean, Vladeemerr Romaaanov Jeez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's just attempting, and rather well IMO, to pronounce the name properly rather than just accepting what is commonly held. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamboy81 Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Lol, This board has seen some bad days, but i think we've now hit a new low... we're starting threads moaning because someone says Ro-manov instead of Roman-ov Does it really matter? I'm sure you know who they mean. What next, threads nitpicking every single tiny mistake/mispronounciation made by tv commentators?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
