Gonna give my kid the middle name South America but it's also a continent I have absolutely no connection to.

BBC Breakfast had a report on the Turp family, who are keen water skiers and in the UK national waterskiing team. Two boys, and a girl call, Tilly.

One of the members of Cycliste's Swiss cycling club is called Randi Koch. Pronounced 'Randy Cock'. He's a jolly nice chap.

Er what? Why isn't it pronounced as the German name and rhymes with 'Loch'*?

* No filthy joke intended here, even though "Loch" means 'hole' in German.

Well, that's not how he says it. Schweizerdeutsch rather than proper Deutsch might be a factor. There's a hint of a burr on the final syllable but it's definitely more -ck than -ch with a rasp.

Ah, OK. I don't know Schwyzrdütsch very well, but is it perhaps more of a -kch, i.e. a 'k' followed by the fricative?

Yep, it's like a hard k followed by a brief gargle.

Cheers.

Have just come across someone called Winter-Friesan. Now if he could just marry someone called Summer-Boylan, that would be just great.

Maybe something you should keep between the two of you.
