Yes. Shift all your cognitive resources to Aramaic and Hebrew now.

I tried Hebrew, but there wasn't enough sources back then. I also happened to upload Badīʿ az-Zaman Abu l-ʿIzz ibn Ismāʿīl ibn ar-Razāz al-Jazarī's blockbuster to aaaaarg dot fail.

"Badīʿ az-Zaman Abu l-ʿIzz ibn Ismāʿīl ibn ar-Razāz al-Jazarī" put this on your visa resume.

my original surname without that mis-registred H is probably a worse threat to the world. Even Finns take side with me there.

I recall I had a genius friend in the 90s. A physicist applying for visa. His birth name was Mohammad. He said, I shouldn't include it and instead use my nickname, Kamran. He said, yet I have noticed that the accurate pronunciation is cumrun. I said that's what you should use.

Whenever K and I talk to him, we say 'tell us cum-run, did you manage to find the right pronunciation and get the visa after all?'
