How the Sun Hotel got its name

Have you had problems pronouncing it?
Never mind! Sometimes you hear it said with a very short "U", and at other times with stress on the "N". Some people add an extra sound, rather like an "E". However, we always say it with a long "U" and a short "N". In fact, our hotel doesn't take its name from the English word "sun", as many people first assume, but rather from a word in the local Valle Isarco dialect. So "Sun" is not pronounced "SANN", but rather "SUUN" with a drawn-out "U". It relates to the name originally given to this local area, which was called the "Hintersun" (Behind the Sun). So now you've learned something new, and you already know at least one word in our original dialect...
