Am I wrong in assuming Arne is pronounced like Arm with an "n"?

Or is it pronounce like Army with an "n"?
If you mean that you kind of merge the a and r,like you were chewing chewing gum while speaking; defnetly no

It's more like Arene
(when you absorb the e in the middle a bit)

yea, u usually can hear the R, it's kind of rolled (by the way, he is the right pronoun ;-) )

@ KyleGoetz Not completly right the name is Germanic, but that usually referees to northern Germany as well as Scandinavia (and even England). The name is pronounced quite of hard so you hear every letter


and thanks for your time; all of you :-)

and Mortry,
If I haven't slept in all my Latin lessons it should be: Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse delendam ;-)
