// all strategies together

Why Enry?
In the movie My Fair Lady, Professor Henry Higgins is one of the main characters. Henry is a linguist and at the very beginning of the movie enjoys guessing the nationality of people based on their accent.
Enry Iggins is how Eliza Doolittle, pronounces the name of the Professor during the first half of the movie.
