difficult to explain!!!
in reply to a message by Carlina
Hi Carlina,
Sunniva: --- SOON-ee-vah ("oo" short like in "book")
Synnöve: --- SIN-ö-veh (the "i" sounds like a mixture of i and a French u in "tu" or a German ü in "Tür" or a Swedish u in "tur", the "ö" sounds like an English u in "turtle", like a French eu in "beurre" or like a German ö in "Mörtel").
The stress is on the first syllable.
Regards, Satu
