A fascinating tidbit

You will see a lot of Brazilians with names beginning with the letter "R" but an interesting fact is that the "R" is usually pronounced with an "H" sound! So one would pronounce Ronaldo as "Ho-naldo". Another interesting fact about the letter "R" in brazilian culture is that it is a revered letter and is felt to be blessed. So according to them I have a blessed name. ;) Anyways this is Hay-han Malick signing off for now.
