Timeline

"...next returned to Ann Arbor..." But there is no mention of Fajans visiting the USA before 1935. Moreover, his list of appointments is a bit vague - posts and dates are available. Chrysippo (talk) 11:52, 1 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

Pronunciation of his name

edit

My father became a devoted student of Fajans while working toward his masters degree in Chemistry at the U of Michigan. He had a very specific pronunciation of "Fajans" and corrected anyone who mispronounced it.

It rhymes with HIGH-ants.

It's like the American "finance" with the accent on the first syllable and the n omitted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:CA10:18A0:0:0:0:6D6 (talk) 04:22, 4 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
