The weirdest thing about knowing some Dutch is seeing names that might be Dutch and pronouncing them accordantly instead of only defaulting to English pronunciation rules.
No idea if Maljaars is a Dutch name or not but I said the j as /j/ instead of /dʒ/
@levisan that is so funny, I do the same!
@airsick Glad I'm not the only one!
@levisan I know a little German from college. The pronunciation rules definitely stayed with me.
I'm always unsure if I should pronounce Einstein the English way or the way Sabine Hossenfelder pronounces "Einstein" in English (the German way).
And the way people pronounce "Harvey Weinstein" bugs me. "winesteen"?
