That’s correct, the word itself is Italian and would never be pronounced the way they did. I’m not sure any European country would pronounce it their way either
Well good thing we aren't speaking Italian but English. Luh-bear-o is more comfortable for American English speakers to say. English and Italian have different vowel sounds and we should be allowed to be localize the word like other languages are allowed to do.
@@tracejones5952it doesn't metter if we are talking in english or not. The word itself comes from Italy, so the CORRECT way is leebero. But since not everyone speak Italian, we all have our accent and we are not obligated to pronounce it like that you can say it however you want, but know that it's NOT the correct way to say it, so and don't try to correct people who actually pronounce it correctly (leebero).
@@ari_az9822 okay you can argue what is the "correct" way all day, but that does not make it so. That is the correct way in Italian and what I'm arguing is that doesn't just magically apply to English. Like any other language, English is allowed to change words from other languages to better fit our accents.
Just because you think it's pronounced a certain way doesn't make you right. If it's said that way in Europe and it's a European product then yes... its pronounced "Lee-ber-o"
@@TrueUnderDawgGaming this isnt a word that has changed over time. This is a case of Americans taking an Italian word and pronouncing it how WE want to...but we are wrong.
@@TrueUnderDawgGaming You do realize that the "majority of people" saying that word are NOT American? Literally everywhere in the world, it's pronounced correctly, except in America.
@@jaydee3730 I definitely need to see proof of this, because when I was visiting London and France they both pronounced it differently. Same with Japan. In fact, from the comment section I just learned that Spanish speakers pronounce it different as well. I think you have not gotten out much (and also hate your own country a very unhealthy amount)
@@alexandergutfeldt1144 It is about "wrong" or "right", you just don't understand how grammar works and that's embarrassing. You say it in a way bc that would technically be the correct way in YOUR language, but the WORD "libero" it's NOT an english word, so YOUR grammar rules DON'T apply on this word. Yet it's about you proud americans or whatever you, are accepting the fact that you say it WRONG, you ain't gonna die. There is nothing wrong with pronouncing words wrongly. For example, when I talk in Italian I don't pronounce english word correctly, but I KNOW that I'm pronouncing them wrong, I'm fully aware of that. See? No shame in that, just accept it.
Actually, it IS all about saying it right or wrong. If each one of us decided their own pronunciation for every word we'd be building the tower of Babel all over.

I‘m German and I always hear people say Li-be-ro. With the proper german pronunciation tho. In America B is pronounced Bee basically but in German is pronounced kinda like beh. A short and simple beh. Some pronounce be in Libero like buh or yk like bé if yk what I mean.
I say ‘Li-ber-o’ because I just say it like that, when my team was working I was doing score sheets, the R1 got mad at me for saying Li-ber-o instead of Lee-ber-o. She kept correcting me and gave me a whole lecture.
The coaches I learned from had the the most country bunpkin accent you could imagine, but they absolutely stressed the pronunciation of lee-ber-o, and I've held on to it ever since
I use them interchangeably but most of the time it’s LEE BER O I only use the other one when I hear other people say it because it kinda becomes automatic but otherwise the word registers for me automatically as it should- LEE BE RO
As an English speaker from a non-English country, why is everyone in comments saying Li-be-ro is easier to say I struggle more with that than I do ‘Lee-Ber-O’ (which is how I say it btw)
Es español se dice "líbero (lee-ber-o)" al menos aquí en Perú, pero la palabra lleva tilde así que imagino que todos los hispanohablantes lo decimos igual Qué rayos con Estados Unidos? XD casi los únicos en usar grados Celsius y también dicen "li-ber-o" xd
ok i speak italian and i played for a team there and yes i say lee bero there but in america i say lih bero because WERE IN AMERICA. i don’t really care what the origin is. this is how we adapted it
The correct pronunciation is Lee-ber-o . That is a stone cold fact. People in the US have been mispronouncing it for so long they think its the correct pronunciation. Chris Marlowe corrects people on this every chance he gets.
Bro, i played libero my first club season so i was obviously going to say the name, right? So basically whenever I said lee-ber-o my coach would just say “What?” Or “It’s Li-ber-o,” I had to train myself to say li-ber-o even though I think it’s Lee-ber-o😭

Very good

Wisconsin’s 6’9 girl was the only one that got it right then?

Yes.
Same in Portuguese
i say "lee-ber-o" it just sounds better 😭

Same 😭
Honestly

I used to say "lee-ber-o" but then I heard everyone say "li-ber-o:

It's the stupid, ignorant US players who have no clue of foreign languages and the origin of the word. They are simply not the brightest.
same 😭
Same here
no you heard americans say it.
they just like to appropriate everything and pretend it's correct and never been different
i say lee-ber-o because im japanese and its the proper way to say it in japanese so it feels right to me lol
You are doing it correctly.👍🏻 Look for the Latin word 'libere'.
I say it like that because I watched haikyu
@@BLINKXTASTEomg same!😭 i like saying it like that
@@BLINKXTASTESaaaaaaame haha
@@BLINKXTASTEbro knows nothing about volleyball
Actually, the girl who was marked wrong ( Amma Smrek ) was the only one who said it right.
P.S. The term comes from Italy and I'm italian.
she wasn’t marked wrong tho, i think it’s just a poll

Lee-ber-o is how I say it
LEE-BE-RO
I say sombrero because my daughter gets rowdy when I say lee-ber-o. If she won’t let me say it properly then I just won’t say it 😂
I'm european and pronounce it the european (Italian) way, but I have no issue with other pronunciations used by people living in different cultures!

My only problem is people trying to force me to say Li-ber-o (a certain few people on my team when I joined Volleyball 😅)
At least one of them said it right 😂
Maaddd respect to the one girl who said it right
I’m learning Italian on Duolingo and the way it’s been teaching me to say it is Lee-be-ro which is an Italian word that means “free”
In Brazil it is pronounced in the italian way.
Ly-bro is my way
BAHHAHAHAHA
Almost everyone in Europe saying “Lee-Ber-O”
It's a Latin word, if I'm not mistaken. Meaning the only proper way to pronounce it is lee-baer-oh
It's an Italian word that comes from latin, the correct way to pronounce it is "leebero" without the "ae"
Good for you Anna Smrek you're the only one who knows! :-)
As a libero myself I pronounce lee-be-ro
nope- i will forever and always pronounce it as ‘lee-ber-o’
it just sounds right 😭
I‘m German and I always hear people say Li-be-ro. With the proper german pronunciation tho. In America B is pronounced Bee basically but in German is pronounced kinda like beh. A short and simple beh. Some pronounce be in Libero like buh or yk like bé if yk what I mean.

It is very common for the same word to have different pronunciations in different countries, so both can be right at the same time. 😊
I say Lee-ber-o because of Haikyuu😅
i love rainelles hair it’s like minee
"Le Barrel"
Li Barrow 🔥🔥🔥 ( I say Lee-ber-o)
The coaches I learned from had the the most country bunpkin accent you could imagine, but they absolutely stressed the pronunciation of lee-ber-o, and I've held on to it ever since

Tell me your American without telling me you’re American
I’ve been calling it li-bero ever since I ever heard about it (I heard it about less than 3 minutes ago)
I say libero. I always have.
when did you start playing volleyball?
I say leebero
Leeeighborough
Or libero.
Libero for the win

i always said it as lee-ber-o
Why are they all stressing the second syllable? I thought the first syllable had the stress.
I've heard Karch pronounce it lee-ber-o so i'll go with the greatest volleyball player of all time
It's an Italian word which derives from Latin. Good Karch pronounced it correctly, not like these ignorant, foolish US ladies.
I say lee-beer-o cause it sounds better and its correct
OMG ONE OF THOSE GIRLS LOOKED AND SOUNDED LIKE TAYLOR FRON THE SUMMER I TURNED PRETTY
I say lee be ro as a joke
I’m italian, libero means free and pronunce LEE-BE-RO
I say it as “Li-Bro”
I’m a Aussie and I say leebero
It upsets me to hear them say li-ber-o like that’s not the way to say it 😭😭😭
I’m American and it’s (probably irrationally like lol) pissing me tf OFF. LOL
I am from Germany and I have always pronounced it LEE-BER-O it just is better😭

You were actually right, it's an Italian word and it's pronounced "leebero"
i used to call it wheelbarrow because i didnt know how to pronounce libero
European > American pronunciation. ITS LEE-BE-Ro. Stay away from people who pronounce as li-be-ro trust me(they like kids)

In german its Pronounced like its written but it sounds more like the Lee-ber-o
Mate it's Lee ber o look where it came from and then here what they say
I still get it messed up because in latin libero(lee-ber-o) means “I set free” so it’s really confusing having to say it the american way
I say LI-BRR-O
Everyone saying lib-eh-ro or Lee-be-ro and I said it lib-ur-oh as a volleyball player help 😭
Honestly bro i say both
Lee - bruh…
It should be lee be ro

Li-beer-o
volleyball players: "li-ber-o" Haikyu fans: "lee-ber-o''
