Re: mrswask ??

Dani - Me or Mi (as in Micky) - chal( short a) (emphasis on the second syllable - with the 'ch' sound that Jewish people can make.

Since most people can't do that - Mi - cal (short a) is acceptable

so, to break it down further, so i understand, it sounds like

mee-KAHL?

or

Mih (ih, like in fish)- KAHL?

Re: mrswask ??

the funny thing, to me anyway, is that i thought it was either what it actually is, which i love, or prnounced as michael, which i love. im dani, so i have a soft spot for boys names for girls. ( :
