Sorry about the spelling. I meant "better" but I hit a mosquitoe on my iPad and the message got autocorrected and sent! I know I could edit the last message,but I think this is funny!
Dave Bindon Aug 30, 2016:
Francesca If this is an old lady who doesn't speak much English she probably doesn't pronounce your name correctly. Can you try to describe how she says your name?

Ellen's suggestion is great. But maybe kyria Eleni would recognise something like Franseska be tier.

Thank you, Erzsébet! Your expertise is no less admirable and as far as knowledge is concerned, I never forget "век живи, век учишь а дураком умрешь."
