Domhnall Gleeson Teaches Us How To Pronounce 'Domhnall Gleeson' | Entertainment Weekly

Rude

Why not just spell it Doenell.....

How come the "mh" is not a "v" this time?

Dom-hall if you're Iñarritu lmao

Ash <3

Thank you, Domnhall! I'm American and I'd been pronouncing it correctly, much to my surprise 😅

I can relate my name is spelt Sveinn but pronounced Svade(just like Shade just replace the sh sound with an sv sound)

his personality reminds me of his role in about time, I absolutely liked this movie because of his simple funny character

☘️ Can you please do a movie where you play Danny Kay you LOOK just like him you need to do the part and they need to make a movie or you make a movie about his life he's funny and I'm guessing Irish too just make it happen you'll definitely get and Oscar I'm sure of it!! ☘️💚☘️

I like the name, this man and his father have grown to become my favorite actor

I assumed the m was silent so i always want to say Donall

Whatever. The “M” doesn’t confuse Irish-Americans 😜🤭😁🤩☘️💚

It's {Dough~Nail} like a metal doughnut

Jesus
...why can't people just educate themselves with irish names


Tis the same when people get the Gyllenhaal pronoun wrong or swedish actors pronouns wrong


Education come on tis not as hard as people make it

He is a talented actor.

just watched joe Rogan podcast and he butchers your name.

The m is just there to confuse Americans accurate

Hahahaha hahaha hahahahahaha top

Brendan’s son is what I call him.

All's I know is Pappa Brendan should be very proud of you with a D, and brother Brian too. I actually just discovered Frank of Ireland on my Prime Video, starting Ep 4, been side splitting cracking up! Anyway you guys are just great in anything your in and hilarious comedians. I'm half Irish half N German, but my Irishness always beams the most.
✊🇮🇪👊

"mh" produces a "w" sound in Irish Gaelic when placed next to a, o or u vowels, if anybody cares.

Domnul Gleeson

Well it works. I am confused 😊

I know how he feels. I too have an m in my name to confuse Americans.

I would always call him Dom-Nuh-Hall Gleeson 🤷🏽‍♀️ and now I feel bad but his accent 🥵

I’m sorry but I don’t understand in what way his name is complicated like???? Wtf

I’ve been saying “Dome-nahll” 😂

Dominal gleeson

whole letters are in the name are confusing me...

So, it's also like Donald without the 'D'.

Ah the problems of an irish name.🙈 I feel his pain....a fellow irish named person!😂🙈

It confuses Germans also.
I always thought it's was spelled Dom-hall. Like Dominic.
Now I've learned it's like the scottish version of Donal (its sounds a bit like Donald without ending)

PSA to all non-irish/-non-scots; it's literally just the name Donald/Donnell spelt correctly, pronounce it however you would pronounce those

In Irish, the "mh" is often pronounced like a "v" (as in Niamh, pronounced "Neev" or "Nee-of"), so I always pronounced his name Dov-null. Ah, well. Whatever the pronunciation, this is a beautiful, beautiful man.

I have one of the world's most simplest names ever which is Kayla and people pronounce my name wrong all the time.They always call me Kaley or Kaitlyn.

According to the rules of séimhiú, 'mh' should be pronounced as 'w' or 'v'.

I‘m an American studying Irish, so please forgive my ignorance, but why isn’t it pronounced like “Dove-nall?”

in irish, "mh" is pronounced "w"

Donald is based off of Domhnall

My uncles name is Donal and most Americans call him Don. Even his wife of 50 years has a hard time saying Donal.

I really needed this 😆

His name is pretty much an Irish Donald

[mentions how someone in particular mispronounces his name]
[mispronounces that person's name]
There are many many difficult names out there, we just gotta try hard to show basic respect for a person's name and also we must apreciate when a person makes an effort to pronounce ours properly-even if they don't get it perfectly

I still have no idea how to pronounce is name.
Even he doesn't pronounce it clearly.

"WOAH, WOAH, Domhnall.
Roll me over Romeo,
There you go"

i'm sure "hot" was one of those names, i'm sure ;)

Don't feel too bad, I'm Irish and I've never seen Donal spelt that way at all 😂😂

I remember when I first saw this man and I was like, OMG He’s so beautiful 😆

Donal, like tonal. And Saoirse, like inertia.

Shouldn't it be like Dov-nall?
