The German pronunciation is the correct one: /ˈɔJlər/.

How do you pronounce "Sun-Tzu" ?

"You-Lah" in swiss german but probably it was "Oil-er" as the swiss use germanic accents for official stuff, I suppose that could mean names

>"You-Lah" in swiss german
I request verification of this. I know the swiss sound very funny, but this distortion of Euler's name I have not heard outside of english, ever.

No one claimed it was a Greek letter like alpha, but don't you think it looks more like a facsimile of an alpha than infinity?

>> No.10514592

>>10514576
It looks like [math]\propto[/math].
In any case, it doesn't look like any symbol usually used to signify a variable. Hence animeposter's poking fun at it, I guess.

Anyway, none of this matters at all. Are you having a good day, anon? I hope so. Here, let me Like! your post.

What a fucking dumb "identity". Literally just means that a rotation by [math]\pi[/math] is a half-turn, but Frankensteined into something "meaningful" and "beautiful" with hideous notation.

Anyone who honestly expects everybody to be able to recognize and pronounce every different language is a padla. You should know Euler (oiler) because he's so important, but if you don't speak German, you're not committing a crime.
