正文

出于对Guido的尊敬,结合我个人发音倾向于American English,我搜集了相关资料,用于对Guido && Python这两个单词进行正确的美语发音。

Guido van Rossum:

Pronunciation :

链接: https://gvanrossum.github.io/ 里面有如下描述:

Pronunciation: in Dutch, the “G” in Guido is a hard G, pronounced roughly like the “ch” in Scottish “loch”. (Listen to the sound clip.) However, if you’re American, you may also pronounce it as the Italian “Guido”. I’m not too worried about the associations with mob assassins that some people have. :-)

从中可知:

对于First Name – Guido,其美语发音同意大利语发音一致。

Spelling: my last name is two words, and I’d like to keep it that way, the spelling on some of my credit cards notwithstanding. Dutch spelling rules dictate that when used in combination with my first name, “van” is not capitalized: “Guido van Rossum”. But when my last name is used alone to refer to me, it is capitalized, for example: “As usual, Van Rossum was right.”

从中可知:

当First name+Last Name时,middle word 是van; 当只有Lastname时,middle word 是 Van

Python:

正常发音即可,我倾向于 Py-th-on。


写在最后:

之前一直是JAVA,这次进入Python的世界,一探究竟。
