Fan pronunciation of Matt Groening's name?
Quote: 'At many times, fans pronounced "Groening" as how it looks'.

This is totally unclear. "How it looks" to whom? Apart from the "ai" pronunciation which is now known to be the correct one (and I for one would like to know the language in question), I know of two ways to pronounce an "oe" diphthong; in Latin and Latin-derived words it's the English "ee", in German (where it's a substitute for ö where this is impossible or unfeasible to use) it's approximately the English "ur". So the quoted passage could mean either of these, or a third possibility. — RobertATfm (talk) 12:38, December 1, 2013 (UTC)
