    1. Re: [ENG-LIV] The surname of "Trevor"
    2. Treh vor . Accent on the first syllable, long o in vor. Of course it could sound like Taylor, but what is the context? Transposed to what document?U.S. Customs, like Customs in most countries, traffic in paper. The names on the paper are spelled per the documents submitted. (visas, passports, ships manifests) Nether Customs nor Immigration change the name due to lack of knowledge about the language. ---------- Original Message ---------- From: "Janice Edwards" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Subject: [ENG-LIV] The surname of "Trevor" Date: Fri, 29 Jun 2012 20:56:31 -0400 Can someone in Liverpool on this list give me a pronunciation of the above surname? Would it appear reasonable that when going through Customs it might have been transposed into "Taylor" from its pronunciation by a person of Welsh heritage and a US customs agent writing what they thought they heard?
