I am a native english speaker as well but gotta admit i was totally thinking of Lena and Lina being pronounced as LEE-nah. But what said makes perfect since and made me realize i have been pronouncing her name wrong in my head lol.
I'd argue as a native English speaker you'd have been right - standard English rules are that a vowel followed by a consonant and then another vowel tend to be long. So Lena should have a long "e" sound, which sounds like "eee". So it would be LEE-nah.

That being said, for whatever reason, for most of my English speaking life whenever I've seen the name Lena (I've seen it a few times prior to this game, but always written, never spoken), I'd always mentally pronounce it Leh-nah for some reason. Like to rhyme with the name Jenna or the word henna.

I guess the easiest way is to listen to the soundfiles thorin send and to keep in mind that they are German names. Same goes for Anna, though you can say her name in both ways, I guess. Sadly, I can't find an example for Anna :/. But I guess it doesn't matter that much, as long as you can seperate them in your head ( Lena = Crazy half German half Japanese lady , Lina = Cute ginger ) :D

Defintiely! Medical personnel need to know such things before taking x-ray or MRI imaging.
You know that a pregnancy can only be confirmed before a certain stage with a dedicated test, right?
I'm talking about ultrasound of the womb and not a general blood test. And that is not standard practice in a hospital for female car accident victims.
Meaning if she is on roughly her first month of pregnancy general tests in a clinic may show that something is not as it should but then again she is in a coma due to a heavy car accident.
Should? Yes.
Could? Depends, most likely No.

Honestly, to my non-German ear, the two sound files sounded nearly identical, except the second (Lina) emphasized the "ee" sound a little more. I hope you will forgive me for (in my head) pronouncing them incorrectly, 'cause it makes my life easier. ;)

Does John's old employer have two gay sons or did some names get changed midway through?
Because at the hotel bar Sabrina mentions David Steinberg and his husband Jeremy and later John meets Jeff Steinberg and his husband Martin.

That's Lena and Anna, I was talking about Lena and Lina. Someone put audio files of those two, and Lina sounded like Lena to me, but with more emphasis on the "ee" sound.

Often it would be that way for me too, but mainly because I have Asperger's Syndrome.

This VN is jsut an emotionnal fiction to me and it reveal some line of the reality unfortunnely but yeah, it's something that you could not be prepared to face.
I was very impressed by the story from the prologue so i can expect more in this update. Characters, events, storyline well everything is just... so alive in a way and yet, this it's not just a VN but, a kind of "life lesson" ? Anyway, i've some struggle to face my emotions when i see this incredible work, that's remind me in a certain way myself i could just be agree more on that.
Just thank you Killer7 for this and yeah i saw some graphics improvements since MNF ;)
PS : I'm affraid that old saves can't be loaded.

Gosh, when I made my first post about the game, I thought I was pretty far in the game, until I realized that I hadn't even reached the end of the prologue.

I think the story is unique and beautifully written, the characters are people with whom you can connect.
And what I find extremely appealing, a natural build, no extreme "rubber tits" and unnatural huge asses, just like normal women look like!
Thanks for that.
Thanks to the german origin of the Dev, at least for me as a german, the english is much easier to read and understand than by english nativspeakers who throw slang and idioms around in their stories.

I had my suspicion that there must be german input behind this, because hardly anyone outside of germany knows this disgusting Dr.Oetker Pizza and even fewer people know the Rheinland.

Danke Killer7 für diese wunderschöne Geschichte, ich werde hier ungeduldig auf das nächste Update warten!

Grüße aus dem Ruhrpott.

Dr. Oetker's headquarters are in Bielefeld and therefore cannot exist at all (German inside joke). Bin ebenfalls aus dem wunderschönen (Hust!) Pott!
