Re: pronouncing shun
in reply to a message by gunblade007
You've asked several questions about Japanese names; are you referring to the Japanese pronunciation of shun and hun? Shun is approximately "shoon," and hun is "hoon" (hun is usually written with an F, fun, but the first sound is not like the English /f/, it's made by blowing through the lips as if blowing out a candle). But if the question is do the Japanese shun and hun/fun rhyme, yes, they do.
