A weekly guide to names and words in the news from Catherine Sangster of the 成人论坛 Pronunciation Unit.

Today's pronunciation is the Serb ultra-nationalist Vojislav 艩e拧elj, . We recommend the pronunciation VOY-iss-laf SHESH-el. In Baltic and Slavic languages, the h谩膷ek or caron (the v-shaped symbol) changes the pronunciation of s to sh: e.g. Milo拧evi膰, which should be pronounced mi-LOSH- not mi-LOSS-.
