Pronunciation of Friedrich

Here is how Friedrich is pronounced

   Slow

The site lists "Friedrich" as simply "FRED-RICK". Although Fredrick is the English equivalent, it certainly is not how Friedrich is pronounced. The first syllable is pronounced like the English word "FREE" The second syllable is more difficult because I don't know of any English words that sound like the German "ch". Perhaps you've already used it for other names, though. Rather than a sharp "k" sound, one's tongue doesn't touch the rough of one's mouth; the "ch" in this name is similar to the "H" in the word "Hue" or name "Hugh". Here are some better examples using other languages: It is like the X in Mexico and the like the 'g' in Argentina WHEN SPEAKING SPANISH. It is also like the Scottish 'ch' in Loch Ness.
