Help[Opinions] Re: Menzies
in reply to a message by Canielle
It lends itself, sadly, to dumbing down. There was an Australian (I think!) politician with the ln Menzies, and it was always pronounced MENzeez, presumably so as not to alienate the voters. My BIL had a good friend at school called Patrick Dalziel, which was always pronounced Deeyell; not a public figure, and not in Australia either!
