Rob Hatch is a total bore off. Yes he gets the pronunciation right but then he really over eggs the regional dialect and reckons it’s a ‘mark of respect’.
Interestingly, I’ve never heard him bung on an Irish, Aussie, Scottish or Kiwi accent, clearly he doesn’t respect those regions!
I see a lot of comments in YT clips about how a commentator is getting the pronunciation wrong and they are always directed at Anglo speakers and always being made by Euro folks but I never hear a peep about how a European commentator mangles an Anglo name.
One smart ass French guy on a camp kept calling me ‘Jan’ because 'that’s what my name would be in ‘his country’. He was called Jean, so I kept calling him ‘John’ in front of his friends. Lo and behold, he learned how to pronounce Ian correctly.
