    Yes, just like that.

    "Dorn" is almost as bad as "leftenant" (for lieutenant). You Brits and your random-letter fetish.

    I see no conceivable way that you could get 'don' from 'dawn'.

    ok - close to yorn... so you should pronounce Dawn as D-ah-n!

    How the Christ can anyone interpret "aw" as "ah"? xD

    If something's cute, do you guys go "ahhhhhhh"?

    I finally stopped being lazy and gave my pronunciation the old recording.

    I have a bit of a rasp in my voice this morning. I didn't have my coffee yet. x_x

    Usually when I'm "aw"ing at something cute, I don't use my normal tone of voice. The "aw" is greatly exaggerated and you can distinguish it from "ah." If I were to say "yawn" in that same tone then it would sound like "yawn" as opposed to "yahn."
