    I'm sure its pronounced 'Daveeday' heard a few commentators call him that, and thats what the italian commentators called him.

    It's this, I speak Italian and the general rule is you pronounce everything, so its, Da-vih-day.

    As you speak Italian, can you clear this one up for me?

    I have two friends who speak Italian but aren't from Italy, they argue on whether or not the 'e' at the end of a word should be pronounced like 'ay' in hay or a shorter and less committed sort of 'eh'/'ehy' sound. What is your take? Or is it probably just a local accent dependent thing like I've been yelling at the two idiots who won't let it drop?

    Seems in Arabic it's mostly Hatim, other places still have it has hatem...

    I swear there was an interview with his agent after his injury saying people were pronouncing his name wrong though...
