I saw your family relationship to Rebecca Neugin... We use Rebecca Neugin in voiceover- & I am trying to fact-check the family pronunciation of the last name. Could you tell me whether it's a soft "G" or a hard G & whether there's any emphasis as in "NEW- gin" ? or New-G-in? At the moment we've got the "gin" part as in "to begin." Much appreciated, Sincerely, Gilles Carter (917) 612-4334 New Haven, CT Hi Patricia and Duane,

I am in the process of finishing a short (20 minute) non-profit educational film for high-school students on Indian (Cherokee) removal (funded by Oklahoma and Arkansas Humanities Councils and the Winthrop Rockefeller Foundation).

I saw your family relationship to Rebecca Neugin…

We use Rebecca Neugin in voiceover- & I am trying to fact-check the family pronunciation of the last name. Could you tell me whether it’s a soft “G” or a hard G & whether there’s any emphasis as in “NEW- gin” ? or New-G-in? At the moment we’ve got the “gin” part as in “to begin.”

Much appreciated,

Sincerely,
