Hi there, /lit/izens. Recently I got pulled into Albert Camus' works and while I love most of what I understand in his books and essays, I don't necessarily know how to pronounce the French names he uses. How do I pronounce Meursault? I somehow got used to reading it in my head like how I would read any word in my language (that would be 'ma-ur-suh-ult'), but I think that if I were to recommend somebody the books or just use it as an example on the finals that I will be taking in a week or so - pronounciating it this way would be an overkill. So - how do I French? How do I pronounce Rieux or Meursault or Jean-Baptiste Clamence?
Also, I apologise in advance for my English or if I remember the names wrongly. I am neither a native English speaker nor have I ever learned French.
