    I wouldn’t say identical. If you pronounce the name “My” it sounds different if you’re actully saying “Mi”? Or “Fyra” vs “Fira”, “By” vs “Bi” etc.

      i said basically identical, that’s a qualifier to specify that it’s not actually identical, just really really close with a minor difference.

      it’s the kind of thing where it’s so close that you can alter what you hear by just showing someone saying the other word while playing the same audio.
