How would we normally pronounce GmbH in English (any English) ? Do we normally strictly follows the German pronunciation as ~"gay-em-bay-ha" ? Or we just say it as it is English, ~"gee-em-bee-hesh" ?

If you had to pronounce all foreign abbreviations in its original language, you'd have to learn how to pronounce every alphabet in the world. As far as I know, most people don't do that. Just say it as it is in English. kallemax 23:25, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

Is this article still a stub? This article is categorized under Germany stubs and Economics and finance stubs. However, it appears to me to be sufficiently long to warrant the removal of the stub claffification. But perhaps I am mistaken about how a stub is defined? What is the official definition?--Peter Knutsen 07:36, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

It's definitely no longer a stub - IMO. -- Ravn 10:16, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
