Help[Opinions] Re: Konstancja?
in reply to a message by PB
For the US, no one would pronounce it correctly. I think it's the "j" that would really throw people.

Depends on the area.
I see a J in a name and I always say "yah"

I agree
I think you would have a better chance of having it pronounced right if it was spelled Konstancia or Konstancya.

I agree that it would be mispronounced in an English speaking country, but I think the c would through people off more than the j. I think people would pronounce it as a hard c rather than a soft one, but I think they would get the soft j. But who knows. Like I've said before, I give people too much credit. :) It doesn't really matter though. Mispronounced is mispronounced.
