YOU ARE SO FUCKING GAY
learn to become Finnish or just die or stop trying to pronounce Finnish names
...So Henkka finishes talking to my mother, and he walks right past those kids who had no idea who he was...
for me its quite easy to pronounce the whole thing.....i'm austrian and we are the masters of rolling RRRRRs^^...but not the die hard RRRs masters like switzerland...
I'm pretty sure that on Janne's last name, the W isn't pronounced* with a V. If I recall, Finnish isn't of Germanic origin but rather Slavic? Thus it wouldn't have the V sounding W? But don't quote me. I don't know German or Finnish.
finnish is an ancient forest language, its not slavic, its fenno baltic, from the fenno ugrian language tree, estonians talk a simular language.
Yeh, like when Henkka came out of the venue the first night, I WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO WAS LIKE "YES!!!" the first second I saw his face, everyone else just stood there not knowing who he was, (even my g/f ), some people we even saying "That's not him"...
...sad thing is, the guy who was a crew member for Bodom is like "Just so everyone knows, this is Henkka from Children of Bodom" and I was like "WE KNOW!" to make him feel better, but yeh, it bugs me a lot. Same with when people ask if I met CoB and I say yes, then they're like "HOW WAS ALEXI?" and I'm like, "I didn't meet him he was sick" and they're like "oh..."
Wtf Obsessed fanboi/gurl n00bs.
-Alexi's original name is: Markku Uula Aleksi Laiho
-Janne's original name is Janne Jameson Virtanen Wirman
It's just kinda sad that my mother knew who he was and those fanboi's didn't and she never met Henkka before that.
haha, that girl next to me was asking the name of the bassist during the show.
-Alexi's original name is: Markku Uula Aleksi Laiho
-Janne's original name is Janne Jameson Virtanen Wirman
OMG, OMG, OMFG!!!!! WHYYYY must they have such hard names to pronounce!? I have to change my pronounciation AGAIN! I didn't Jaska's name was prounounce Yaska!!! I should have figured though since Janne's is also Yanne. And before i had no idea Alexi's last name was pronounced Lie-ho instead of Lay-ho. Well, last least i said Roope's name right.
