Here's the breakdown:
* Ehrlich is a German name.
* In German, the "ch" sound can be pronounced two ways:
* Like the "ch" in "Bach" or "licht": This is a "k" sound (like in the English word "kick").
* Like the "ch" in "ich" or "Buch": This is a "ch" sound similar to the "ch" in the English word "loch" (though slightly softer).
So, how do we know which pronunciation to use for "Ehrlich"?
The "ch" in "Ehrlich" is pronounced like the "ch" in "Bach" or "licht," meaning it's a "k" sound.
Therefore, "Ehrlich" is pronounced "AIR-lihk" (with the "k" sound).
