rockie Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 I recently signed this ukranian player and he fits into my team perfectly. However, I can't pronounce his name, can anyone help me??? His name is: Dmytro Chygrynskyi Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
4457 Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Ah, old Dmytro. There used to be a pronunciation thread around somewhere. Personally I use Di-ME-tree-o Kh-GRIN-ski. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrashOverride Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 May be missing something but why would you want to pronouce his name? Other advice dont sign players whose name you cant say:D Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neji Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 May be missing something but why would you want to pronouce his name? Why would you not want to know how to pronounce your own players name? I'd go with what 4457 said. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimbobWWFC Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 As well as his problem with saying the player's name, hasn't anyone noticed his spelling problems in the thread title too? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrashOverride Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 It is a tricky word to spell and these forums dont come with a speel checker. For what I said about saying the player name at least he can read his and doesnt put Reina on wide left instead of Riera Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrashOverride Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 No it was a deliberate typo! I can spell (sometimes). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carradona Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Give him a nickname, may I suggest... erm... Pete? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
estoo Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 You could use the nicknames feature and change his name to Jim. I like to think my players would give an easier pronouncable nickname to someone like that. Anyway I reckon it's Dim-eat-row Chig-rin-skay Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOriginalJez Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 it's actually Chyhrynskyi (birth name)... kuh-/g/rin-sk/y/ee is how i'd say it - the ones in /x/ being almost silent Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
4457 Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Chyhrynskyi would be the proper Ukrainian-English transliteration, but FM seems to like to keep the letter 'g' for Ukrainians. So Metalurg rather than Metalurh; Oleg Luzhnyi rather than Oleh Luzhnyi; Sergey Rebrov rather than Serhiy Rebrov etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

4457 Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 It's amazing what managing in Ukraine over two versions (CM03/04 and FM08) teaches you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobby_McDonald Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Never mind players, I couldn't pronounce the name of my team to start with. Thanks to Alan Lambourne, I now can. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
