Help[Facts] Re: Some Spanish Name Pronunciations
in reply to a message by Profe Esteban
I don't know Abegail as Spanish form (nor my Spanish name books), but if Abegail is a legit Spanish form (I doubt that), it is pronounced ah-beh-GAIL [abi'gajl].
And for Espiridion, the Spanish form is Espiridión (ehs-pee-ree-DEEOHN, [espiri'djon]). The spelling Espiridion is not correct (perhaps the mistake is originated by influence of English pronunciation, which has translated the stress, but it is only a conjecture, because for me the pronunciation [espi'ridjon] is completely unknown).
(I don't know how to represent some sounds with figurated spelling)
