Note! The noun from the verb pronounce is not pronounciation, it's pro_nun_ciation and is pronounced accordingly.
Adidas is a German brand and the Brit says it right = emphasis is on the starting "A" and not on the "i" .."Adi" was the first name of the company´s founder (= shortform/Nickname of "Adolf" ) and "Das" are the first 3 letters of his surname "Dassler"...by the way his brother "Rudolf Dassler" founded the Sports goods company "Puma" just solely to piss off Adi. The rivalry amongst those 2 brothers/companies is legendary.
The weird thing is Americans pronounce 'buoy' as 'boo-ee' but 'buoyancy' as 'boy-ansy'
I like your relax style, no over the top introduction, just a chat on the sofa. Try British place names, with their Anglo-Saxon, Roman, Brythonic and French influences. Brits can only pronounce them because the locals correct us. Good luck.
Buoy = boy.
Quay = key.
Re sult or res ult according to where in England.
Star Trek data.
What does the French word debris mean?
noun. debris [noun] the remains of something broken, destroyed etc.
Advertisement, is interesting when broken down, actually 3 words, 4. To advert is meant.
A favourite word pronounced differently here from how it is pronounced over the pond is behove.
Try jaguar
I just got to thinking as a Midwest American (Michigan) if we said Debra the way we say Zebra, that could cause some bar fights...
😂
There’s only one e in zebra.
I’m aware 😊 -Ari
@@AriandCal Australia by the way. Not England
@@trevorcook4439 I understand, it’s hard changing pronunciation when my brain registers it that way, I’m too far gone 😭
@@AriandCal haha! Thanks for taking it for what it is rather than a personal attack! Refreshing!
The reason america changed a lot of words is that the newspapers charged for the number of letters printed, so to save money they removed letters from many words and did that for so long that it became the new spelling, so capitalism is to blame.
Examples please? A lot of differences are due to Noah Webster. Others are due to original spellings (aluminum) that the English subsequently changed after they already coined the word.
@@johnlabus7359 I also thought that was the explanation (Webster). Either way it is interesting to hear how different we pronounce words compared to across the pond -Ari
It wasn't capitalism to blame, it was lower caseism.
