"raj" not same as "rye"

edit

The 1st paragraph ends: "Raj is a Polish and Bosnian, Croatian, Serbian word meaning "paradise" or "heaven."" I would qualify this statement in saying those 2 words are not pronounced the same. The much used pronunciation of the Hindi word raj is like the "rog" in the name Roger. The Slavic word for paradise is pronounced "rye" (like the cereal grain), the vowel sounding just like the way we pronounce "eye." Alexeykh (talk) 02:34, 18 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
