Talk:Eugen Schauman

Pronunciation
I wonder how his first name should be pronounced; is it ['ɔ͡ʏgən] (German pronunciation) or ['eʉxen] (something... else)? I've personally heard the latter being used, which I guess is plausible if Eugen isn't a German name, or if the foreign name was used as a Swedish noun. The ʉ would quite certainly be Swedish influence. 62.241.230.83 14:09, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

his name is based on german and pronounced accordingly — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.201.241.250 (talk) 08:24, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

I am almost related to this guy. My aunt's husband's former boss is the grandson of his little sister Sigrid. And I have heard that she pronounced his name the German way - I heard it pronounced as "Öisen". J I P | Talk 21:25, 1 August 2008 (UTC)


 * That is certainly not a German pronunciation. --BjKa (talk) 16:01, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

Death
Schauman did not die instantly, (maybe within minutes but that is not instantly), according to an eyewitness interviewed on Finnish radio, archive (Elävä arkisto: Bobrikovin murha) What is your source? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.192.44.172 (talk) 17:15, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

Explosive Bullets
I don't believe it. I'd like to see someone prepare an effective detonating charge inside 40 mm3. I bet this was coined by some doctor who had heard about the grave dangers to civilized society by illegal "dum-dum bullets", which was widely circulating at the time. Maybe Schaumann had filed the jacket down to expose the lead core, resulting in something similar to a modern jacketed soft point bullet. --BjKa (talk) 16:01, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
