Sheep · 26-30, M

Øyvind

NorthernRoses · 26-30, F

@Sheep Holy shit, hold on, are you Norwegian?

I can just imagine how they'd attempt to pronounce that and fuck up. Ooih-vinddd, Oivin, etc

People just can't seem to nail the Ø :( They get close sometimes but turn it into a like, Øe thing

Haha ye! You`re norwegian aswell?
They usually just give up and say Oyvind or my last name. I usually say its pronounced like the "i" in flirt.;)
