Foreigners can't pronounce my surname correctly and call me "Gonzalez" or something similar.

At least they get the "ç" right, bro.
Could be worse, you could have a tilde in your surname, or be called "João" or "António" or something like that.
But overall, I feel you
>>69537561

They don't. My surname is Gonçalves and I was called Gonzalez, Gonzaloez, Gonkalves etc etc many times.
>>69537688
Hello, you guessed right :(

>>69538875
Gringos man, gringos..
>>69538875
Because the letter C makes a "kuh" sound.
Not a fucking z or f like in spic languages.

If you have to press alt+153 or some shit to get it on your screen, then it's not a real letter.
>>69541419
only on english keyboard you need to press those buttons
>>69541303
Soft "s" ? Gonsalves ?
>>69541419
Kek, we just have to press a button buddy
Also, if you don't have a particular keyboard for your language it's a meme one

My name is Guilherme, most americans pronounce it as guilârm. A few try to sound wordly and say guillermo. It's very stupid.
>>69541266
My name doesnt have a "c" it has an "ç", they are different. Even calling me Gonzalez is better.
>>69541419
Different keyboards.
>>69541473
More or less.

What really enraged me when people asked my name and I answered them how I'd say my name normally in portuguese, in my accent the way to pronounce the R is exactly the same as the english R. However, they would ignore completely what I just said, hispanicize the whole thing and thrill the R in guilherme as if it were fucking spanish. And I know that in their heads these goddamn americans were patting themselves on the back for being able to pronounce the name and being oh so above the average can't-roll-my-r-yankee when they were the most ignorant of all. Of course I always stayed silent and never corrected anyone.
>>69541663
Sorry, I have problem with portugese. I just can't understand why couldn't they just use the spanish pronounce.
Brazilians can't pronounce my name and surname correctly
Ettore has already became Hétero and Hereto many of times. And the girl from starbucks wrote "Étori" once...
>>69541878
well that is a fucking ugly surname no need to worry hahahaha
>>69541878
There isn't any "spanish pronunciation" for my name, fuckwit.
>>69541947
You can't blame them, Your surname isn't luso.
>>69541951
Carcamanos, obnoxious as always.

I think Guilherme is such a noble name since it's William in Portuguese. But I'm guilty of pronouncing Guilherme as Guillaume like in French... (._.)
>>69544245
It's ok, I'm fine with anything as long as it's not spanish.
