How do you know you don't pronounce the "r?" Sorry if I missed something. It's a new name for me and I'd love to know how to say it correctly. Thanks! :0)
It's new to me too. The others are right, I just clicked the name's page. :)
Yeah. Forehead slap moment for me. I guess I need a new prescription. :0P
On the name's page, the pronunciation guide says it's "mah-ZHE-nah".
Thanks! :0)
The pronunciation given in the BtN entry for Marzena says it's mah-ZHE-nah, no R. However, my understanding of Polish is that "rz" makes a sound that does not exist in English but can be approximated by "zh". So the R is technically pronounced, it just doesn't make the same sound it does in English.
Ah. Of course. I must need a new prescription. Those letters are so small on my screen.
Thanks! :00
Thanks! :00
I'm 50/50 on this. I'm a Polish-born Brit, so, for me, it makes me think of middle-aged women (I've met a dentist in her 40s/50s? named Marzena) in a sort of a neutral way. Contrary to what namingzzz said, it doesn't make me think of marzipan since Marzena's not pronounced 'mar-ZEE-na,' 'mar-ZAY-na' etc.
Middle name suggestions:
Marzena Oliwia

Makes me think of food, certainly. A new kind of margarine, perhaps.
