    How do you pronounce Van Gogh?

    That’s a weird way to pronounce Van Gogh. 😉

    I recently watched the documentary Van Gogh by Vincent, which narrates his development as an artist by using his own self-portraits. Hearing the way the speakers pronounce his name is now cemented in my mind. Honestly it still feels weird, but I'll get used to it.

    If you don’t watch Doctor Who, and even if you do, Vincent and the Doctor is the best season 5 episode (no spoilers for the larger series arcs).

    And that’s when I started questioning how I pronounce Van Gogh (I’m American, so I say Go with the long ō).

    I listened to a Dutch person pronounce Gouda (cheese) and now pronounce it that way, much to the dismay of my fellow Americans.
