koreans have hard time pronouncing letter "r" also their letter "r" is the same as "l" precisely the reason why sometimes names and words are spelled differently
like you said "Alondra" should have been the spelling but then if a native korean says the name they'll pronounce it as "Arondra"
since all the names are spanish i will go by that to say that there's an "Alondra" name in spanish. it's not very popular nowadays but still not so unpopular that it's lost or very old. There's no "Arondra" name whatsoever tho so it makes sense that the name is Alondra but it's pronounced Arondra
RIP to all the Alondras in my hood. It's a super common name in Mexican/ Latino communities. Didn't realize it's losing it's popularity outside of these communities tho
in spain itself it's not a very popular name you definitely don't see it nowadays in young people. it's mostly old/middle aged ladies who's name is alondra and even then it's pretty rare lol
I'm genuinely surprised! I always thought Mexican communities had some of the most BASIC names taken from Spanish (Spain) during the colonizations, and perpetuated since. Tbf, a LONG time has passed since then lol
I’m pretty sure her name is Alondra. I think I read somewhere that Rs and Ls are usually hard to pronounce/translate in Asian languages. Does anyone know is this is true?
