They didn't say, but I would assume that Franke would be pronounced with a silent e (Frank, not like the name with a short a, like the former French monetary unit), and that Stange would be pronounced with a short a and silent e as well.

You should pronounce Dewi like Davy, but then replace the v with a w. And Driegen... well Drie is pronounce Dree and -en is pronounced uhn. The -g- is something else... very hard to explain to a non-Dutchy. It's like the ch in Jiddish mesjpoche (which means family)... yeah sounds kinda vague
Here is a blog about Dutch pronounciation... search for a 'g' and listen to how it sounds. Hopefully it'll make it clearer for you

I'm not sure how the r in French sounds... but if you do not pronounce Channukah as Hannukah then that is indeed how to pronoune it! And about that blog I mentioned, I had the link but didn't paste it... so now I lost it

Haha, my Danish friend taught me this! It's Fry-uh Bee-uh, except the Danish R is like German, it's a weird hacking sound, that I learned how to do! I was so excited
^yes, channukah is pronounced the same as hannukah. thanks! speaking of which, Happy (C)hannukah everyone!!!
Well, I ment that it sounds correct when NOT pronounced as Hannukah, but in the tradition Jiddish language.... but, it's too hard to explain really... noone's hurt when you pronounce it with an English g, so
