Talk:Bastian Sick
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] pronunciation
Is his name really pronounced zeek, like German siek? kwami (talk) 08:37, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
copied from my talk page:
- Hi! Indeed it seems strange, to pronounce Bastian Sick's last name like "Siek", but as far as I know, the name contains the so-called "Dehnungs-c", which is seldom but not uncommon in Northern Germany, see for example "Mecklenburg", with the first vowel being long. I've heard him pronounce his name with a long /i:/ on TV as well. — N-true (talk) 12:15, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
