Section 0 Introductory poem
^_^

Children of the land, do you hear
Echoes of truths that once rang clear?
Two souls intertwined
One true love they did find
Bringing land and heavens near...

Welcome to Librivox.
Please be sure to read the first post and ask if you have questions.

FYI, we don’t usually say “section 0” in the intro… it’s not natural. Just say “introduction to…”

Question on pronunciation.

I have successfully found correct pronunciation for "Arucanian" and "Trauco" however, I have not come across a solid pronunciation for "Aniwee."

Do you have a preference for this? :)

Thanks!

Not really… and we don’t comment on pronunciation except where it changes the meaning of a word. Here, I would say “Annie Wee” 8-) 8-)
