Not sure why the Palace website insists on using the 'ø' in Sørloth and ignore the 'c' in Milivojevic (using the character breaks this post) or 'é' in Souaré, for example. If they want to imitate the pretentiousness of the Guardian, then at least be consistent. Edited by Penge Eagle (15 Feb 2018 9.12pm) Probably because it changes the pronunciation completely, whereas the other two do not. It's still not as annoying as the BBC insisting on using Taoiseach every single time, instead of just putting the Irish PM. Something that they don't do when talking about any other equivalent foreign position.
Optimistic as ever |
