Re: How do you pronounce Juliet? (more)
in reply to a message by Lily
Juliet JOO-lee-et, Juliette joo-ee-ET.
I like both, Juliet is actually on my pnl. I'm not that into Shakespeare and the character's name in Portuguese is Julieta, anyway, so it's very easy for me to dissociate the two. I've never met any Juliet/te's, but I've met two Julietas (one is now in her 80's, the other in her 30's) and aside from 'So, where's Romeo?', neither was made fun of based on her name.
