Re: Wolfdieter Huy

Hi Larry,
There is one Free possibility to load the link given by Leo... Nothing more than the page concerning Huy on Luftwaffe.cz.
Concerning Huy pronounciation and your English way... Hum! Hum! Its a german name and I think Scott is asking "how do you pronounce it" .. In German!
But 1/ Is it a true german name? (With final "Y" which, for me sounds a Hungrian one)
And 2/ If it is, then it's a local name with local pronounciation.
then, it's better to think for:
(H being an aspirated consonant)
1/Hui (with Hungrian "y")
2/ Huü (for Y is an Upsilon)
or 3/ Huu long Hu.

I'm going to check further since I think it's a very good question! (Just think about a french asking for Ohio, for example!!! )

Franck.
