I had a teacher ...Ha, that's funny about the name. I had a teacher whose name was Mr. Schroeder, and we all pronounced it (so did he) like Schroeder in Peanuts. Well, one day we had a guest lecturer in class who asked him, "oh, is it Schr-ow-der or SchrAYder?"<BR/><BR/>Turns out the real German pronunciation is SchRAYder, and my teacher knew it, but had finally given up on trying to convince people to say it right and went along with it. I bet it happens a lot.Jennifer @ Fruit of My Handshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11479983078312955832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3061159764229648120.post-89150679130499997832008-08-25T14:14:00.000-07:002008-08-25T14:14:00.000-07:00Oh welcome to the world of slaughtered pronunciati...Oh welcome to the world of slaughtered pronunciations.
