It's different in cyrillic, of course. The letter looks like "bI" (I hope
you recognize it). This is sounds similar.
I know that Ukrainian and Byelorussian have this vowel. I don't know about
Bulgarian.
And I spent 8 years studying Russian. I can still hardly speak it.
I blame my teachers and the school system ;)

Wow - nice :)
Have you got it set up so that you simply enter in someone's co-ordinates
and the "pin" is automatically placed at the right location?
I'm really posting to suggest you put your POV World Map URL and co-ordinate
requests up as a new thread in povray.general. I'd imagine quite a few
people won't bother reading this giant thread too far - so posting this as a
separate message should get more responses :)
In terms of how "on-topic" it is, I think a request for co-ordinates for a
POV World Map is pretty well suited for "povray.general".
Good luck,
Matt

OK, now I understand that you meant "able to pronounce all sounds" and not
"able to speak without accent" and I won't say that this is not true
(because how should I know?) :-)
Even "able to speak without accent" may be true for many individuals...
But still:
>The Germans don't have a consonant, which is pronounced like a
>"v" in English (that's the reason why the home computer Vic 20 was called
VC
>20 in Germany).
Either I have a very wrong image (if you can say that for a sound) of the
english "v", or you are wrong.
In German there is very much a consonant pronounced like the English "v",
only we write it "w" :-)
I would say that it is rather the english "w" (which is softer and with a
more rounded/open mouth than the "v") that doesn't have a corresponding
consonant in German.
The problem with the Vic 20 was not that there is no "V" in German, but that
"V" is sometimes pronounced like "F" and sometimes like "W", depending on
the word it is used in and the region you live in. And if you pronounce
"Vic" with an "F"-like "V" you get the german version of that famous
4-letter word that is so prominent in Quentin Tarrantino's movies :-)

Ok, I don't care how you say your names, but please drop in on my PoV
World Map page.
http://members.aol.com/wrld0rigin/povworld.htm
It may be annoying seeing an AOL "Thankyou" page if you send in the info
but at least that should mean it worked. Try not to "Synch" more than
one time per person/locale.
Thanks to all who have sent me lat/lon in so far, please use this page
from now on as it will also be a permanent linking page to the map as
well.

I don't agree. I know the German "w" is lightly "blown" (angeblasen), more
than anywhere else, but the word "Wort" is not pronounced as the English
would pronounce "vort" (let's forget about the pronunciation of the "o"
right now, just for simplicity). The German "W" is still much closer to the
English (and Dutch and French etc.) "w" than to the "v". To me, a "v" should
be a softer version of an "f", like the "z" is a softer version of an "s",
or the "b" is a softer version of a "p" and the "d" of the "t".
What you said about the Vic 20 is exactly what I meant. A "v" is not a "v"
in German (neither is a "w" a "v").

Heck no it doesn't automatically render the submissions! LOL I wish...
It's pretty much manual labor ;)
You know though, I could actually do that kind of, I mean have it keep
updating a POV script file I think, not sure. Will look into that, would
take appending and don't know of that ability.
About the new message post, yes, I'll take your advice and do just that.
I had almost done so at first accept it seemed I should try and put it
with this thread. It is too large a one to find well enough, right.
Thanks.

I believe it refers to a digested form of, with explanations but containig
only the relevant facts, contains no extraneous material, a study aid.

LOL.
But it depends. I'm from the south, we use a "soft" g, not the "hard"
coughing g the others use. But the hard one really sounds like a bad cough
to foreigners, I know. That's why almost no-one from abroad can say
"'s-Gravenhage" or "Scheveningen".

_I_ can. I once had a friend coming from
Scheveningen. It took me a while until I could
pronounce it, but nevertheless, now I do understand
a lot more dutch than I could before. Reading is
easy (I'm from Germany), but listening.....

It's even easier if you come from northern Germany like me where they
still speak Plattdeutsch. There are so many similarities between
Plattdeutsch, Dutch, English and Danish.
If you can understand my Grandpa than Dutch is easy! :-)

I will have, just have to do the trimming and further collection as time
goes by. And as time goes by there is apparently more and more trimming
in need. I wasn't going to keep the language barrier conversations
though, only the name/place comments. Should I keep all of the talk?
Meaning every reply content of all the "Where..." original?
I'm debating this inwardly right now.

True. My mother is from the east of the Netherlands (Twente, Enschede). When
we were in Denmark (I was 10 years old) the first time, she had big problems
reading what the words meant, until she found out, she only had to pronounce
them and then think it was her dialect. Then her problems were far less.
And the northen German Plattdeutsch is really similar to Dutch dialects
Gronings or Twents. I have no problems understanding Plattdeutsch.

It's a bunch of pulications by a company (presumably owned by a guy
named Cliff)that American students read when they don't feel like
reading the text books.
Kind of a joke that occured to me when I clicked the little + icon next
to "Where are you" and Netscape barfed.

Ask around. Ask people to pronounce it, after you told them how to pronounce
it. Most of them will have a hard time. So most never bother to learn, as
many Dutch understand German anyway (esp. in Scheveningen or Zandvoort).

Damn, "Fahrenheit 451" comes to my mind: add pace, cut novels shorter,
then leave only reviews of them, then ban books, as nobody reads them
anyway and they make people unhappy; let people watch soap operas from
TV. Bradbury was quite prophet in his novel. And Cliff sells even this
book!
Anyway, I'm thankful for those people, who solved my free time problem
by breaking to my apartment and taking TV, while I was taking powder in
Alps. Now I have much more time to read books and learn foreign
languages (and raytrace some pics).

Ooops, there are dutch people in Zandvoort? You have a hard
time finding them between all the german tourists... ;-)

Drifting off-topic? Hell, that's mildly said :)
It's weird: people complain about OT posting, yet still all the real
monster threads are completely off-topic (and I have been an accomplice to
this). I think this one beats even the "arrogant e-mail" thread. Anybody
interested in counting?

I have it at 154 with this post. The arrogant thread I think ran around
130 maybe more so this is probably a record or will be by the time it
dies down.

In threads which are clearly off topic anyway ("Where are you" is not really
related to the product) this doesn't matter a lot. In important threads, the
signal to noise ratio should be as low as possible. Being off topic there
can be a nuisance.
So being off topic is not always bad. If people are not interested in this
thread, they can just as well ignore it.
Don't forget: everyone likes to chitchat every now and then. That's
perfectly human.
My 2c.

Yep, I was just d/l'ing the entire thread this evening. I have a
question relevant to this too. Any idea about it being accessible via a
web page link? I was going to just toss it into my webspace but couldn't
help but noticed the 157 or so messages stating "Copyright" in the
headers. I have the headerless version in a text file now. Wonder who
I'd email to find out? Any clue, anyone?

Just for the record, I'm Stephen Lenehan and live in a village
called Shevington about 3 miles outside Wigan in North West
England. I've been POVing for about a year now.

I live in Normandy (North-western part of FRANCE) for the time being. I have
been 'poving' for three years now and still bewildered at the capacities of
POV. I am 29.

Since it obviously isn't, how about a URL to "the world of povray
users"? Good time to repost it I would think.
http://members.aol.com/wrld0rigin/povworld.htm (zero in 0rigin)
Please go there and submit your location if you would, all POV-Ray
users, young and old, newbie or oldie(?) alike welcome, then you will be
inducted into the great Map (within a few days, week or so at latest).

Sorry, but as I am not constantly connected to this forum ( I have a life outside POV)
I have
missed the first thread.

Are you going to produce a table for us at some point, showing
the stats.
I added my coordinates yesterday. Nice globes.

If by stats you mean numbers by country, possibly so. I'm only listing
names (no other info whatsoever) to preclude there being any acquisition
of relevent data by unscrupulous people who might find it and use it for
evil purposes ;}
I would see no harm in showing the list of places "un"connected with
persons names either.

And thankyou, both times. I do need to find out where I got that image
map so I can be sure of it's useability and link to the place I got it.
It might change before I figure where I got it from though at this rate.

I was going to say, I have "Enschede" already listed. And Ingo is the
one :)
It's a small, small world.
