In other words, the "i" from the "shi" generally gets dropped in cases like this. (There isn't anything else about the pronunciation I'm unaware of, is there?)


Well, sure there is. You know how non-native-English speakers often pronounce English words using the rules of their own native language? And they sound kinda funny, no? (This includes me too! lol)

Same thing kinda applies here.

There are several differences (some of them are somewhat subtle) that make American pronunciation of Japanese sound quite .. funny :P

Just one example, in English (more specifically, north american english), most often, non-stressed vowels are converted to schwa (think about the 'u' sound in the verb subject vs the noun subject). Japanese doesn't do that kinda thing.

wow, this is very off-topic.
