      Actually it's for a simple reason, the college gave her cards with only yhe phonetic spelling, and not the actual name for some reason, phonetics I learned phonetics in school for music class but it's certainly not a commonly taught thing, absolutely bad on the school's part, whoever had the idea to do that... brain dead, but the woman is fine

      I mean if they were in IPA, I can see her getting some of these stumbling over what the symbols mean…
      They’re not intuitive and if you’re not trained, I can easily see not knowing how to pronounce them…
      Thomas > tɒməs
      Molly Elizabeth > mɑ.li ɪˈlɪzəbəθ
      Virginia > vɚˈd͡ʒɪn.jə
      Brotoski > bɹotaʊski
      That kinda explains too, why brotoski of all things was right while she stumbled over the others. I’m not sure that’s what happened but I could see someone who’s unfamiliar with those symbols stumbling around and producing some of those results.

The names are written BOTH phonetically and in English on each card. This is to prevent this issue in case the phonetics are wrong. Pretty much did this to send a message to all non POC’s and their families.

      That’s a small price international students pay having their names mispronounced. I’m sure they are crying themselves to sleep for having their names occasionally pronounced because it was formed in conjunction with a different language. People come here knowing that English is the primary language spoken here, and in the business world. Where it shouldn’t happen is from a university located in the United States. Asian people do it right when they name themselves names like “Joey” and “Betty” as their American names. They don’t b1tch about it.

      It's International Phonetic Alphabet spelling. The guy's name would have looked like "ˈtɑməs ˈmaɪkəl kɑnɛˈvɑri". You try sounding that out when a crowd is laughing at you.

      @@Jordan117 Your example only supports my claim. It is a stretch to think "Tames Maikel" resemble "Tomoomay". No "oo" present. No "S" mentioned. Mixing of two different words." Phonetic alphabet is very easy to read if you know how letters sound. I easily read your example. There's no excuse for a presenter at a college to read that poorly. This is why college is now a joke and accepting weak excuses for it isn't going to make it better.
