Ah, reminds me of the time (among a few) that I heard someone pronounce the
<sz> in the Hungarian name <László> as [z] (the correct pronunciation is
[s]). In this case (now that I think about it) one person who I remember
mispronouncing <sz> was married to a Hungarian! (Even worse, she was someone
who tests students for giftedness!! Well, she's just not gifted with
language I suppose... :))) )
