English was my 5th language . . .
Pronouce it any way you like, they'll take your $$$ just the same!
well, at least we don't have some of the stuff that English English has, like Encyclopaedia, and Theatray.

And I majored in Chinese, which, besides lacking an alphabet, is pretty straightforward, once you get the basics. It would be interesting to see the Chinese translations for bike parts, but I doubt any of my dictionaries have the vocabulary for it.
