Re: OT: Myfanwy
in reply to a message by Bear
I was just wondering because "vahn" and "vawn"/"Vaughan" sound very different to me.
My lab tutor's name is Myfanwy - in English it tends to be pronounced "me-VAN-we" but in Welsh it's more like "me-VAHN-we".

Huh. I pronounce "vahn," "vawn" and Vaughn exactly alike. I live on the West coast of the U.S. Where are you from? Just curious. :-)
The UK. I live in Manchester, my lab tutor is from Wales (can tell by her accent!).
