How to pronounce my name 101

April 3, 2011

Everything Else, Featured Content

I usually don’t post at this time of day (it’s 11:45 pm here) and I don’t usually post twice on Sundays either, but I had a brilliant idea when I was on my way home from a lovely dinner at my mom’s.

I noticed people don’t quite know how to pronounce my name… And so, I decided to enlighten you all with my very first ever video blog sort of thing.

Please don’t laugh at A) my horrible filming skills B) my funny accent or pronunciation of the English language and C) the sort of news anchor faces I pull when sharing a fact. O_ô

I don’t know if I’m made for this video thing, hehe.

So no more Mennon or Mino or whatever! :P

Thanks. *takes a bow*

    Hi Manon. Thanks for the pronunciation lesson. You have beautiful English, and, as a Southwestern girl, I think most people would say my accent is thicker than yours by far. I notice you didn’t tell us how to pronounce your official last name. I’m still curious. :)

    BTW my apologies for mispronouncing your name in my video. I’m notorious for mispronouncing words, just ask my French instructor, or anybody who knows me. XD So I can’t say I’ll get it right next time!
