Maximus Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 BUT how will the commentator(s) pronounce his name? We are repeatedly told it is pronounced: ah-shin (AHH -shin. Emphasis on the first syllable.) This is about as silly as it gets. The Ozzie media will have a field day laughing about their cousins over the ditch who don't know plain English (or words derived from the French or Irish). Aigne has several meanings - it can mean mind/attitude/psyche (Irish); it is also used as a girl's name. It is also a place in southern France. There may be other derivations and meanings. But I doubt very much that it is ever correctly pronounced with an ahhh and a shhh in it! Good luck to all the connections - and to all the poor Ozzies who have to have a crack at pronouncing the name Aigne (en-ya / ayn-ya) MM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hesi Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 I see in the Herald, that the trainer has said that Aigne is Irish for attitude, so it just makes it more confounding as to how they arrived at ah-shin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
