Every single game, people are posting in the GT's about Harnarayan Singh's pronunciation of Kadri. I am myself a minority and for me it would very weird for people to pronounce my last name the "real" way it should be versus the anglicized way so I'm happy with the angelized pronunciation.

Can we settle for once and for all if Singh's right on pronunciation or not? I think Nazem Kadri is of Lebanese descent and I'm not familiar with how it should be pronounced from an Arabic background. I think Singh is possibly using a more Punjabi pronunciation of it.

Any Lebanese/Arabic fans who can clear this up once and for all?
