Re: Soleil : Would it be mispronounced often?
in reply to a message by Fiammetta
Soleil doesn't have any difficult sounds for English speakers? I don't think anyway... it more whether they recognize it as French and know that it's LAY and not LEEL. In the United States and Canada at least there is a history of large and old French settlements so it's not entirely foreign to us.
Also there is an actress with the name here in the states who was relatively popular in the 80s and 90s.
