Sir, i have two points to say. First, Amphan had degraded to an Extremely Severe Cyclonic Storm at the time of landfall, although it was Super Cyclonic Storm previously. Secondly, the pronunciation of 'AMPHAN', as per the Government of India guideline, is 'UM-PUN'.
I earnestly request you to look into these facts at and do the necessary corrections. I would be highly obliged if done so Roy 953 ( talk) 13:40, 21 May 2020 (UTC)

Where can I find the highest winds and lowest pressure or highest hurricane category in this article? Typhoon Vongfong (2020) includes the information in the infobox.―― Phoenix7777 ( talk) 23:51, 20 May 2020 (UTC)
The highest pressure should be below 925 because 925 is what it had when it was a category 4 early in the weakening phase. The highest winds should be at least 160 mph one minute sustained. B137 ( talk) 00:55, 21 May 2020 (UTC)
Can it be high importance? As Amphan is so strong that it is a SuCS, and it brought extensive damage to land area. -- 182.239.121.141 ( talk) 17:18, 22 May 2020 (UTC)

surpassing the record held by Cyclone Nargis of 2008. Nargis is a cyclone in 2008, not 2004 182.239.121.141 ( talk) 17:20, 23 May 2020 (UTC)
There seems to be disagreement about how "Amphan" should be pronounced; I have hidden the pronunciation in the article's lead until we can come to some consensus. The pronunciation originally in the article was /ˈʌmpʌn/, which I added based on observing how news reports pronounced the cyclone's name. The IMD, specified that Amphan was to be pronounced "Um-pun", which is ambiguous regarding whether the vowel should be /ʌ/ ("u" as in "cut") or /ʊ/ ("u" as in "push"). I chose /ʌ/ because the storm name itself uses the letter "a" to transcribe this vowel, which doesn't make sense for /ʊ/.
The article's pronunciation was later changed to use /ʊ/, and then an etymology from the Thai " ท้องฟ้า" (pronounced "thong-fa" according to Wiktionary) was added. This means 'sky', and was probably added because some news reports translated the cyclone name as such. However, based on that pronunciation alone, this is obviously incorrect. The Thai-language article for the cyclone season uses the word " อำพัน" instead, which on Wiktionary has the correct transliteration of "am-phan". This word is also what Thai news sources are using. I note that this doesn't translate to 'sky', but rather 'amber'. This is in fact consistent with the theme of the other Thai-derived names in the basin – Phailin means 'sapphire' and Mora means 'agate'. It makes sense that Amphan would have a gemstone-related meaning as well; the 'sky' translation is almost certainly incorrect. Therefore, I believe that the pronunciation intended for Amphan is /ˈʌmpʌn/, derived from Thai อำพัน, meaning 'amber'. Thoughts? — RAVENPVFF · talk · 04:16, 24 May 2020 (UTC)
