Do you know how to pronounce “Solzhenitsyn?”

Do you know how to pronounce “Solzhenitsyn?” Well, the Jeopardy-verse is po’d because all three contestants said “Who is Solzhenitsyn?” which was the correct response, but each person pronounced it wrong. So nobody won that one. Jeopardy Superfans are in a tizzy. (The clue was “An author and former prisoner: ‘Socialism of any type and shade leads to a total destruction of the human spirit.'”)

Just in case you are on the show and an answer comes up like, “Bad golfer with bad jokes” and you guess correctly “Who is Joe Ditzel?” it rhymes with Toe Schnitzel.
