I just want Dutch people to know that if they pronounce the names of the letters A B C D E F G H I the way they do in Dutch, that is not how you would pronounce them in United States English.
Here's some examples
Dutch "A" sounds like in English the sound "o" makes in the word "fox".
Dutch "B" sounds like English the word "bay" in San Francisco "Bay"...instead of the word "bee"
Dutch "C" is like the English word "say"
And Dutch "I" sounds like English "E"
Dutch people need to know these alphabet names don't align.
And Dutch "W" doesn't even use the word "double" as in "double u" They call it "VWAY"?
And what is this stuff:
AAI, AU, CH, EEUW, EI, EU, IE, IEUW, IJ, NG, OE, OOI, OU, SCH, SJ, UI?
