I said SPELL (in writing). Orally reproducing it is a different proposition, I agree. I have no problem if somebody mispronounces a name. Sometimes it's really difficult - my own given name is very hard for some people. But what about a written word? Moreover, when in the body of that article the word is correctly spelt Gandhi throughout, wasn't it the editor's duty to see it was also accurately spelt in the heading? -- Harshawardhan ----- Original Message ----- From: "Vanya Orr" This is very difficult Harsh.. I have lived in India for 16 years & still get confused with where the "H"s go.. its a non sound so has no hooks for foreigners to pick up on.. I am sure there are English words which you have to think about twice... as there are for me.. a little intemperate of you? > [Just one thing; I don't think very highly of those who cannot > even spell a proper noun - a FAMOUS name at that - properly! > Ghandi, indeed!
