Mancini is pronounced "Man-chi-ni" not "Man-see-ni"

[Didsbury Dave]

There's a long tradition of mispronounciation at City.

LAds were still Calling him "Weekins" after years.

So I've been getting Malc Simmerbee, Carling Boil and Frinny Low wrong all these years?

What about that young lad who plays for Inter? I think his name is pronounced Man-see-ni.

You have to say how it is spoken in their country of origin.

- Bojan = Bo-Yan not Bo-Jan

No you don't, we're not in Rome and history is littered with names that have changed slightly due to local swerves of dialect...the locals were pronouncing 'Man-See-ni' half a century ago, right about the plot where the b-of the bang stood.

agree.
letter I and E after C, pronunced chi and che.
marcelo = mar che lo.
but, is it matter? many people wouldn't care. *i still think 'kuyt' should be pronunced 'coo-it'

Unless its your surname dont worry about it, its not your concern.

Really pisses me off when people say Man-see-ni.
