Is there a way in the new macOS Sierra to teach or have SIRI learn how to pronounce a non-standard American name? Especially Asian names... I find it a pain when I want to text a friend a message only to learn that SIRI doesn't understand the name because it's not your average American name.

I know you can manually teach siri how to pronounce a name using your iPhone, but can this somehow be done on macOS Sierra or somehow have this feature built into the contacts app?
