I knew a bloke well, at Oakwell, who sold the half time draw. It was a bit ago, coz it was a quid a go, and he only shifted four!!
Given the umlaut over the 'a' in his name, I think it may be pronounced 'Bearer'. Pity. Could have been cue for a good song or two.
Without the r at the end though. The Germans don't tend to add random consonants to their words that aren't there.
Agreed, I added the "r" to try to make it clearer. Most English speakers wouldn't pronounce an "e" at the end of a word. For example, they would pronounce "Beere" like "Beer". If you write "Beerer" though, the pronunciation becomes clear.
Russian and Finnish are totally phonetic. However that is compensated for by grammar so complex it makes A Brief History of Time seem pretty simple!
Russian may be phonetic but as it doesn't use the Latin alphabet it makes it impenetrable for most nationalities. I don't even know what the **** this is: Ж
It's a "zh" sound. But in Russian they have no "j", so the first sound of my and your name is represented by a "d" plus "zh" to make "j". So I am Джон and you are Джей. Clear? Don't worry if not,you'll probably never need to know this in real life. But if you ever do come to the former Soviet Union, the alphabet is actually pretty easy and can be learnt in a couple of days. But as for the grammar, fvcking hell. Absolutely insane.
