Why am I only getting half of this conversation? :\ For the record,
"Joaquim" is pronounced "zshoo-ah-keeinh", approximately. Or "shwah-king"
when said a bit faster and less articulated. I graciously permit Swedish
people to adress me using the Swedish counterpart "Joakim", i.e.
"yoo-ah-kihm", since it's less of a hassle.
