[] My name really is hard for non-native speakers

Imagine, you’re not a native Dutch speaker and you come across someone named “Gijs”. How on earth do you pronounce that? Well, for reasons which will currently remain a small mystery (but will likely be cleared up later) I have a demo version of JAWS, a screenreader by Freedom Scientific, installed. So now I can give you:

Yup, it’s hard alright!
