I was misled.

For the entirety of my awareness of his exsistance, I've been pronouncing his name Jung

Tonite, I learned that it's Yoong.

"Hey, just so you don't sound ignorant....it's Yoong."

:crazy:

Isn't being humbled great? :grin:

I called a certain type of transmission fluid "Dextron" for two years while I was working in a lube shop only to have a customer inform me that the bottle in my hand was "Dexron II" not Dextron. Those types of things are good for us I think.

You used to say Jung as in jungle? That must've sounded a bit awkward, but you shouldn't fret about it. Many people mispronounce names like Nietzsche, Jung, Socrates, etc. until they hear others say them correctly. Names from different cultures have the tendency to be spelled differently than they sound

So long as you are praised think only that you are not yet on your own path but on that of another.
