In polish it's completly easy. It's readen just like writen.

Same goes for German.

The Ruger 77 is produced by an American company, so it is pronounced the American way (Roo-Gerr), as confirmed by videos on their websites.

So, the "g" in "Ruger" pronounced like the "g" in "garden."

Pronounced english, it would actually be pronounced differently because a "u" wouldn't equal a "oo".

Same here.
To sum up my point: We had a multipage debate about toilet padding. (Putting TP in the water so you don't get splashed.)
And we still don't know if dead guys can keep a stiffy.
