No, it’s not Friday Night yet but the debate should start, I’m broke and have no paypal account and still have a UAE Visa for a bit longer (and need to go back for work) so I can’t do any Chutney Ferret…
The voting has started here and Mrs D_P has decided you lot need to record your attempt at the pronouncing the name of my new village (last one) and post the soundclips on here for psoterity
The default will be Golfing_Phil but that is so not creative.
Pronunciation - shchygleetse, with the stress on the penultimate syllable. The ‘y’ represents a vowel sound a bit like an English short ‘i’ (as in ‘in’), but produced further back in the mouth. If I can manage to record myself attempting to actually say it, and post the result here then I will.
And my vote goes for Szczyglice_Phil - another one for the unpronounceable forum name club.
It is finally time. As of this afternoon I am now official for the next 5 years in Poland, have my “Cardboard” ID Card and so I am now ex Dubai Phil.
Time for a name change
in honour of Bletch it could be Ksiazece IPA Phil but spell check hates it and all the emphasis thingys are missing.
Could be Dragon Phil after Krakow’s famous City Mascot.
I like Polskie Phil myself.
Wanna do this or shall I just get Tripsy to change something
