If itd  is were a  scheduled talk, I'll  do the preparation  well.  An
important of the preparation is to ensure that I know how to pronounce
every character I'm going to use, especially proper names.

It is  generally quite embarrasing  to mispronounce one's  name.  This
occurs  occasionally  in TV  game  programmes,  where  the hosts  draw
letters from a poll of letters  sent from audience, so as to determine
who is lucky  enough to receive grand prizes.  When  the hosts have to
announce the prize recipient and  the recipient happens to have a rare
character for  his surname,  oops!  What can  the hosts do?   The most
acceptable strategy,  IMHO, is  for the hosts  to apologize  for their
ignorance and admit that they don't know how to pronounce the surname.
They would then give a description of the shape of that character.

Really?  I'm interested.
