How

Ar-hen
hby?

I started with Ar-jen then I got to about ch 60 and thought, 'maybe it's Ar-hen'
I'm indecisive now.

My only thought was to pronounce it "Ar-yen," but that's too similar to Arien, so I went with a j sound. I never thought of Ar-hen

Maybe it because in Spanish the 'j' sometimes makes the 'h' sound and where they reincarnated seems to be kinda european that I pronounce it Ar-hen

For me its A-rhen

eREn YEaGeerRRR

wdym? I'm a native spanish speaker and I can't think of a word where j sound like an h, can you give me an example? maybe I'm just not imagining the same sound?
I've always read it ar-jen btw

In spanish H is silent and J and G make sorta "h" sounds but they're differente.
And words J is making H sounds: juez, jalapeño, japonés. But the H from english (like Home) doesn't exist in spanish, the J or G sound in spanish is "harsher" then the Ho(me) sound in english.And what's weirder is that the J and G sound are different from H sounds from english only in Spanish spanish ( spoken in Spain(europe), except Andalucía). I'm missing all the sociolinguistical terminology but I think I explained it alright :'v

I pronounce it the French way: J as in Julie.. so ArJen

ooh I see! yup, the english H sound doesn't exist in spanish at all. It also makes it easier to read japanese, since romaji is pronounced as you would in spanish
since spanish was my first language I never looked at it that way! I compared english to spanish but never spanish to english haha thanks!!

Pero la J del "romaji" (que por cierto que significado romaji?) tampoco es del castellano, en el valenciano o catalán ese sonido "ji* como e Girafe del inglés si que existe pero en el castellano (español de la península) no. Es un lío esto de la sociolingüística pero muy interesante

jajaja sii, en clases de japones nos decian que la j la trataramos como la j en ingles, pero para nosotros seria mas parecido al sonido de la y
romaji se le llama a cuando escribes japones con el abecedario romano/latino (el nuestro). el japones se puede escribir con: kanji, hiragana (silabario), katakana (tambien silabario) y romaji. tecnicamente romaji esta escrito en romaji jajaj
