Thank you for explaining

Something I'm unlikely to ever use and who sponsor football which I try hard not to watch . No wonder I hadn't heard of it.

It is the H that most western people have problems with as it is said differently from the way it is said in english.

It does not really matter though how you say it does it?

In arabic there is no "P" for those interested in useless info.
