Nobody else knows or cares how Cyrillic is pronounced versus the language the rest of everything written is. You're just confusing people, especially if you don't care about proper grammar to match your capricious language hopping.

That's a funny clip but let's be kind to each other. They were trying to be thoughtful in their own, admittedly unique, way

I wished to call out arrogant behavior in a fun way, but I may have been needlessly hurtful. I have edited my reply.

Were you confused by what I had typed?

Yeah, so much so that I had to tell you about it in that last comment I wrote.

Yes, I see. I'm sorry. I really thought it would be pretty clear what each Cyrillic name meant, even to people who had never read Cyrillic before.

I appreciate your saying that, and your desire to be respectful of people's names. You had good intentions. I hope you have a great day.

Edit: Why are all you jerks downvoting the dude for saying sorry? Do you want to discourage people from apologizing? Because that's how you discourage people from apologizing.

I certainly was, it's like you [redacted] didn't want us to [redacted] but instead [redacted] you were saying about [redacted]. Get it?
