Add pronunciations to field guide
Posted: April 29th, 2019, 9:25 am
"How do you pronounce...?" questions pop up in discussions pretty often. For the ones where an answer is actually known, it would be a huge help if the pronunciations were added to their field guide entries. If there's a reference where that info came from that would be great to know too. I can find references for pronunciations of town names, but not features like waterfalls. Calling a ranger station every time I'm wondering about a name and hoping whoever answers the phone isn't guessing too doesn't seem like the best option.
Right now I'm trying to figure out "Wiesendanger." You'd think since it's named for a person in relatively recent history it wouldn't be that hard, but at best I can find other people with the same name, who use multiple different pronunciations.
