[quote:e6211100f7="Buzzfloyd"]The only people I've met who've been familiar with them already have been Scandinavian, Dutch or Japanese. But most people have only seen them in dictionaries.[/quote:e6211100f7]

I'm familiar because I'm interested in that sort of thing. But it wasn't taught in my school.

And I've been assuming that everyone pronounces Angua with a hard "g"(as in grape). I thought it was only the "ua" part that people disagreed about.

I would pronounce the "Ang" part like the "ang" in "angle."

edit: now that I think of it, my grandmother was from Eastern Europe, closer to the Earth equivalent of Uberwald, and she would have pronounced it closer to "Eng-va".
