and is there a GOOD website that shows how to pronounce names?
All my profs said mur SAY uh ELL ee odd.
Can’t help on the website (and can’t prove my profs had a clue.)
Mircea Eliade is pronounced Meer-cha Ay-lee-A-duh (cite).
I usually just enter – name + pronounced – in Google.
Thanks!
I can second “meer-cha” as the correct pronunciation of Mircea, having known someone by that name personally. In fact, the emphasis is strongly on the first syllable, so it’s more like “MEER-chuh.”
