Ohhh after reading your comments, I'd like to add that Indonesians may pronounce Peugeot as "pusot" or "pisut" and Citroën as “sitrun"! Thanks for the feedback guyss hihi 🥰🇮🇩
Actually, "Zastava" is really famous. We had a title for the world's worst car for so many years. It was "Yugo 55", or "Yugo America". We were trying to sell it to Americans as the cheapest car ever, and some of them really bought it. That's when the real humiliation begun. We thought that there were so much poor people in America that needed a car. But they just laughed at us. Their poor people were the worst liberal capitalists of them all. Absolutely oblivious. They would rather live without any car, if that ment to support the richies. They are not a human beings, fighting for their human rights. They were mesmerized by TV.
@@hamishdomergue8810 We know. Thanks. Usually, when someone would praise the Serb, we would be like "What are you trying to sell?". But, she is an Austrian Serb. They are much nicer and not that blunt and open with their opinions. In that environment, with all these wonderful international girls, she is just great. Never shy, but still nice. Our girls should learn that from her.

Genesia, we do have Citroën and Peugeot in Indonesia, but you’re right-most people don’t pronounce them correctly here. I’ve heard them called “sitrun” and “pusot” before 😂. The reason Citroën gets pronounced as “sitrun” by some (especially older folks) is tied to our history with Dutch-influenced spelling. Back then, the combination “oe” was used to represent the ⟨u⟩ sound. Modern Indonesian spelling later simplified this, replacing “oe” with just “u.” Interestingly, many people (including Indonesians) mistakenly believe we used the Dutch alphabet, but this isn’t true. Indonesian spelling has undergone several reforms, making it quite different from Dutch. For example, the letter U in Indonesian is pronounced [u] just like the way it’s pronounced in Spanish or German, while in Dutch and French it’s pronounced as [y] (like ü in German). Similarly, the letter W (which Genesia pronounced in this video) is [w] in Indonesian but [ʋ] in Dutch and German. There are so many differences between Indonesian and Dutch spelling that speakers of Spanish, Italian, and German often find Indonesian spelling much easier to learn than a Dutch person would!
@ Ah, I see. Maybe that's how people around you pronounce it. I've also heard "pejot" 😆 . I'm sure there are many other ways to pronounce "Peugeot" in Indonesia and they would all be wrong LOL.
@emanobryantelle Wkwkwk I speak a tiny little bit of French and German, but I like to pronounce them phonetically in Indonesian: “citrowen” and “pe-u geyot” 😆
Romanians pronounce everything just like Serbians, it's incredible how different, yet similar the Balkan countries are! I would love a Balkan language video or a Latin one that include Romania as well
Citroen does exist in indonesia, to be precise in the 70s and 80s quite popular... we usually say "sitrun" instead of citroen... you can watch a citroen being used in one of warkop dki movie, where it moved only with its three wheels... And peugeot some of us say it "Pisut"

Yugo was far from the worst car ever made lol. It is not even declare as such by officila car critis. There were plenty of worse cars like tabant 601, renault 4, and many others. For the time it was made, it was a very solid and cheap car (not best, not worst), but it wasn't the only one that Zastava made, there was the much better Zastava 101 and others.
@ I was kidding, I actually learned to drive in Yugo, and even my driving instructor was joking how that is actually best thing that can happen to you, cause if you know how to drive one, all other vehicles will be easy to drive, including trucks and tractors lol It was good car, for his time, cheap, you can fix it on parking lot, and all spear parts you can literally buy in shop around every corner. Zastava 101 is 70’s car and my uncle had drove same even in 90’s, it was 25 years old when he finally sell one, and he said he never had better car after that. It was hack of a car for 70’s and it is interesting that Italian FIAT constructed one and then sold a license to Zastava to produce same, cause in Italy they believed in that time that hatchbacks don’t have future, and only 2 years after that VW start production of Golf mark I, also designed by Italian studio Bertone, and hatchbacks became most popular car type in Europe. So Zastava was accidentally in front of times in 70’s. But in late 80’s it deteriorated and on the end, it totally collapsed in 90’s, during war and sanctions. Factory was even bombed by NATO in ‘99.

Hello 👋🏻 Jennifer 🇩🇪, hello Aleyna 🇹🇷, my faves! It’s sad that in my country Australia 🇦🇺, we no longer have a car industry. Holden was probably the most loved Australian car brand.
Serbian is well known as slavic language with very clear and latin pronouncing one letter one sound, probably because Serbs as slavic people, lived in one, now pretty far period in Roman Empire.
I mean bringing in someone from Switzerland for language challenges just doesn't work. We have 4 linguistic regions and this girl doesn't represent 3 of the 4 regions of our country. From the way she pronounces things, she's from the German speaking area, no point bringing her for this when there's literally someone from Germany already. Also, it's not Swedish, it's Swiss.
19:30 In Japan, when Hyundai first entered the market a few years ago, it was pronounced as "Hyundai". However, it did not sell well and eventually withdrew. Recently, the company has re-entered the Japanese market and, for some reason, has been actively promoting the pronunciation "Hyundai" as "HyunDae". Nevertheless, most people in Japan still call it "Hyundai". This Japanese woman seems to be proficient in Korean, which is likely why she pronounces it as "HyunDae." In Japan, however, the vast majority of people continue to say "Hyundai."
Turkey used to have Anadol in the 1960's. After that, came Murat 124 and Murat 131. Then we had the "bird series" of Tofaş: Serçe (sparrow), Şahin (hawk), Doğan (falcon) and Kartal (eagle, the station-wagon), but they were originally Fiat models, so they might not count. And Serbia, during the Yugoslavia time used to have Yugo, which I think is the cutest car ever. Spain has SEAT, but it's long been owned by Volkswagen. I don't think I have heard of any car named Genesis and I don't think in Turkish it would be pronounced like in here. It would be G as pronounced in "gate" or "Gary". And we never use Benz either, it's "Mersedes" and even "Merso". The Volkswagen pronunciation in Turkish was accurate (Vosvogen), but the subtitles gave it "Folksvagen". There's also the affectionate name "Vosvos", but that applies only for the OG of Volkswagen, the Beetle (which is called in Turkish as "Kaplumbağa", meaning "turtle"). I think that when it comes to Citroën, we tend to put the umlaut on the o and think of it as "Citröen" and pronounce it with ö (similar to German pronunciation). At least it's what I do, it's kinda stuck.
The German pronunciation for Citroen in the company's own advertising is like "Zitrön". (Because "o" followed by "e" is the alternative spelling of the german "ö".) The correct pronunciation was also used in advertising years ago. I have no idea why they went back to the Germanized version.
I don't know where the Turkish girl heard "Benz" but we call it "Mersedes", "Vosvos/Vosvagen" for "VW", "Porş" for Porsche, "Pejo" for "Peugeot", Şevrole" for "Chevrolet"
Oh wow! Is that Kotaha from Japan?! 🇯🇵 Haven’t seen her on World Friends for years! One of the originals! Her accent is so cute! Her English has improved a lot!❤
Thank you for the love everyone! I’ll try to do my best and always drop some fun facts whenever I can ❤ (P.s I know about Zastava, my mom used to drive a Yugo ☺️)
11:02 we actually do. As a matter of fact, Citroën has two factories in Indonesia, in Pulogadung and Purwakarta, and it is in the latter that Citroën intends to produce its 100% electric cars, which it will market in Indonesia.
11:45 The word "Citroën" comes from the founder, André Citroën's surname. What's interesting is that his surname is actually of Dutch origin, and the diacritic on the "e" was added when his family moved to France. The word "citroen" means "lemon" in Dutch.
His parents are Turkish. He is also Turkish. But he considers himself Swiss because he was born in Switzerland. A degenerate Turk who does everything to be European.
In Russia, we say Мерседес бенз (MersedEs benz) БМВ (Be eM Ve) Ауди (audi) Фольксваген (fol'ksvagen) Порше or Порш (pOrshe or porsh) Бугатти (bugAtti) Cитроен (Sitroyen) Пежо (pezhO) Крайслер (kraysler) Тесла (tesla) Шевроле or шевролет (shevrole or shevrolet) Ниссан (nissAn) Лексус (leksus) Тойота (toyOta) Генезис (genEsis, hard g) Киа (kia) Хёндай (khyonday) It was interesting!
It should be noted that Louis Chevrolet was a Swiss national. There was also a time in the United States when a BMW would be referred to as a "Bimmer," but the peak use of that terminology was like the 1980s.
Sorry for my Indonesian fella. I think she never saw Citroën and Peugeot in our street before. It's okay bc both cars are very rare in Indonesia. For Citroën we called it SITRUN bc of the Dutch influence, OE spelled like U. It was from old spelling before enhanced and refined in 1972. And for Peugeot, we pronounced it by PUJZO 🙏🙏👍😉
Funny thing, Americans occasionally say 'Merc' for Mercedes-Benz, but a lot folks forget about Ford's second brand 'Mercury' which also was shortened to 'Merc'
In Germany Citroën is pronounced "Ente" which means duck (2CV). Cool and iconic very soft suspension car that gives you only 1.10 cm space for 2 persons.
Bugatti is complicated. An Italian man went to Germany to found a car company (also because a lot of the early engineering was happening in the country) and also met his German wife there. Then ww1 happened and Molsheim, where he based his company became French, later so did he. The company stopped existing for a while and was re-created in Italy. They went bankrupt again and Volkswagen bought it and placed the HQ (at least the final assembly) back in Molsheim, France to where it was originally founded, while pretty much all engineering and design was done by VW. So you could say: It's an EU effort 😀
Bugatti had several opportunities to obtain German citizenship if he had wanted to. However, he chose to be French by applying for French citizenship, just as his brother did himself. And the company is still based in France today. QED.
We have two car brands in Spain: "Seat" and "Cupra" (They are owned by the Volkswagen group, but they are spanish brands). In reality we used to have one brand, which was Seat, and Cupra was the name of the more powerful versions of the Seat cars, but some years ago Cupra became a brand on his own, so now they are two independent brands. They are quite known (in Europe at least).
Even though i know many words of german i still saying the name of the brand in my original language 😂, since i am used to hear and speak the most, Mercedes-Benz for me is just Mercedes for example
I've never heard another American pronounce Hyundai the way Haley did. I've only ever heard Hun-day (rhymes with Sunday) or Hun-die. I've never heard anyone actively pronounce the "y" in hYundai. Another one was Audi- I've only heard it pronounced like "aw-dee" not "ow-dee" how she said it. Where is Haley from? Maybe other parts of the country say it differently? That's the thing about being American, we have too many accents and pronunciations here lol.
Same for Porsche. We never would say it like Porsha. We straight up would say it as Porsh. I don’t know where she thinks we pronounce some of these names like that because we don’t.
Now, German and English are not just both Germanic languages but also closer related as West Germanic languages. VW/Volkswagen should not be too difficult to already SEE that "Volk' is a cognate of 'Folk' and 'Wagen' exists also in English even if it is often used in a slightly different context (but still close enough to get the idea). No rocket science. I understand that many dont realize quickly that the English 'car' and the German 'Karre' or 'Karren' are also cognates but 'Volk' and 'Folk' or German 'Hund' and English 'Hound' (like in Grey Hound) should very quickly be noticed. And the 'double-U' is one of those inconsistent English pronunciation, because also in English one usually pronounce the letters like the start of words with that letter, only in a few cases its different not for logic but historical reasons. English often also speak the 'W' like the Germans (and others). You say 'Wagon' similar to German or 'West' (exactly like in German' etc... you dont say 'DoubleU-agon' or 'DoubleU-est'. The historic reason is that the Latin alphabet had no 'W' and also no 'U' and the 'V' was usually spoken as 'U'. Thats why you find on classic and neo-classic buildings often a 'V' instead of an 'U' like in 'AVGVSTVS' (instead of 'AUGUSTUS'). Now the Germanic 'W' was at (early-) medieval time added to the Latin alphabet and built just by doubling the 'V' which was still usually spoken as 'U' which resulted in many regions as 'DoubleU'. But the 'U' also was introduced which made this 'DoubleU' kind of meaningless plus in more modern times usually most languages tend to speak the alphabet in a consistent way of like starting words (in case of consonants just adding a vowel). Also the inconsistency with the 'T' in English is one of those things which makes English vocally less intelligible as it could be. You also say 'Tea' as hard 'T' like in German etc. but in other cases (as in the video) often more as a 'D' even if you pronounce it also harder like 'T' (Tea, Ten, Tsunami, tired, talk ...) - like in German. What exist in German is also some dialects or slopy everyday speaking who sometimes make the 'T' soft (which might be the reason why it became also in Standard-English a thing. Not enough academized!)
In Italy we pronounce 1. Mercedes benz _mercedes benz_ or just _mercedes_ (c=ch) 2. BMW _bi emme vu_ 3. Audi _identical to Spanish_ 4. Volkswagen _folsvaghen_ 5. Porsche mostly _porsh_ but also _porshe_ 6. Bugatti _identical to Spanish_ 7. Citroen _sitroen_ 8. Peugeot similar to french but peu is pronounced pe so it's _peshiò_ 9. Chrysler _craisler_ 10. Tesla _like worldwide_ 11. Chevrolet _shevrolè_ 12. Nissan _identical to Serbian_ 13. Lexus _identical to Spanish_ 14. Toyota _again the same as Spanish_ 15. Genesis _English loan_ 16. Kia _the same as Spanish_ 17. Hyundai _iundai_ Identically to Spanish, our h is mute too 18.
Benz exists in France but it's slang. And outdated (mostly used in the 90s and beginning of the 2000s). Most people would use "Merco" instead for slang
Vietnam should be in this video, they have vinfast. And we (indo) have one as well, namely "ESEMKA"😂, the first ever live action "invisible boat mobile" 😎

Hello 👋🏻 Jennifer 🇩🇪, hello Aleyna 🇹🇷, my faves! It’s sad that in my country Australia 🇦🇺, we no longer have a car industry. Holden was probably the most loved Australian car brand.
some serbian pronunciations are kinda similar to brazilian portuguese
Serbian is well known as slavic language with very clear and latin pronouncing one letter one sound, probably because Serbs as slavic people, lived in one, now pretty far period in Roman Empire.
Because Brazilians are from Europe so same people same pronunciation
Bravo Drago!!!!!!!

Actually, Drago is totally non Russian name, but very often in Croatia and Bosnia, shared between Serbs and Croats.
@@stefansavic4799 Of course Drago is serbian chetnik.
Instead of a purely Turkish person with Swiss citizenship, you can only bring a Swedish person. She's Turkish. She is not Swedish
why do you even care..
@oulawd6281 why not?
I mean bringing in someone from Switzerland for language challenges just doesn't work. We have 4 linguistic regions and this girl doesn't represent 3 of the 4 regions of our country. From the way she pronounces things, she's from the German speaking area, no point bringing her for this when there's literally someone from Germany already. Also, it's not Swedish, it's Swiss.
The serbian is a GOAT she has well knowledge
19:30 In Japan, when Hyundai first entered the market a few years ago, it was pronounced as "Hyundai". However, it did not sell well and eventually withdrew. Recently, the company has re-entered the Japanese market and, for some reason, has been actively promoting the pronunciation "Hyundai" as "HyunDae". Nevertheless, most people in Japan still call it "Hyundai". This Japanese woman seems to be proficient in Korean, which is likely why she pronounces it as "HyunDae." In Japan, however, the vast majority of people continue to say "Hyundai."
Браво Драга!
Draga 🇷🇸♥️
Draga what do you mean you have nothing to show, you have rakia in Serbia
That is rakı the Turkish alcohol?
@neverbeaten it's alcohol from Balkan countries actually
We also had a car brand "Zastava" in Serbia, where the Yugo was made. Thank God, Draga wisely decided to keep it quiet.😄
Serbia has Djokovic and Jokic
What about Zastava? Yugo?
Swiss girl looks more Turkish than the Turkish girl. She might be the most Turkish-looking person I've ever seen.
In my 30 years of life, I have never heard anyone say Benz in Turkey :D
The Queen of this episode is.... Draga.... 🇷🇸👸
21:02 Don't worry.. Nobody knows "SMK Cars".. wkwkwk 😂🤣🤭
Turkey used to have Anadol in the 1960's. After that, came Murat 124 and Murat 131. Then we had the "bird series" of Tofaş: Serçe (sparrow), Şahin (hawk), Doğan (falcon) and Kartal (eagle, the station-wagon), but they were originally Fiat models, so they might not count. And Serbia, during the Yugoslavia time used to have Yugo, which I think is the cutest car ever. Spain has SEAT, but it's long been owned by Volkswagen.
I don't think I have heard of any car named Genesis and I don't think in Turkish it would be pronounced like in here. It would be G as pronounced in "gate" or "Gary". And we never use Benz either, it's "Mersedes" and even "Merso". The Volkswagen pronunciation in Turkish was accurate (Vosvogen), but the subtitles gave it "Folksvagen". There's also the affectionate name "Vosvos", but that applies only for the OG of Volkswagen, the Beetle (which is called in Turkish as "Kaplumbağa", meaning "turtle"). I think that when it comes to Citroën, we tend to put the umlaut on the o and think of it as "Citröen" and pronounce it with ö (similar to German pronunciation). At least it's what I do, it's kinda stuck.
The German pronunciation for Citroen in the company's own advertising is like "Zitrön". (Because "o" followed by "e" is the alternative spelling of the german "ö".)
The correct pronunciation was also used in advertising years ago. I have no idea why they went back to the Germanized version.
I don't know where the Turkish girl heard "Benz" but we call it "Mersedes", "Vosvos/Vosvagen" for "VW", "Porş" for Porsche, "Pejo" for "Peugeot", Şevrole" for "Chevrolet"
exactly lol
I never heard someone called Porsche as Porş, everyone calls it Porşe
@@kofteistkofte Then you've heard from the people who spells it correctly, that's not mean "everyone"
Draga is the most erudite among these girls, which is great
Ur videos make me feel better im crying rn and ik this will make me feel better tysm giggle
Oh wow! Is that Kotaha from Japan?! 🇯🇵 Haven’t seen her on World Friends for years! One of the originals! Her accent is so cute! Her English has improved a lot!❤
So adorable when she said “you need to hajima”
Thank you for the love everyone! I’ll try to do my best and always drop some fun facts whenever I can ❤
(P.s I know about Zastava, my mom used to drive a Yugo ☺️)
We'd like to hear you speak french more, please 🥺
"In Serbia we just born Tesla".
11:02 we actually do. As a matter of fact, Citroën has two factories in Indonesia, in Pulogadung and Purwakarta, and it is in the latter that Citroën intends to produce its 100% electric cars, which it will market in Indonesia.
Spanish: It's pronounced as it's spelled.
Canary Islands:
Canary islanders speak a spanish more similar to the one spoken in Venezuela.
wow draga she is smart and brilliant
11:45 The word "Citroën" comes from the founder, André Citroën's surname. What's interesting is that his surname is actually of Dutch origin, and the diacritic on the "e" was added when his family moved to France. The word "citroen" means "lemon" in Dutch.
Actually, the ancestor of André Citroën was a citrus fruits merchant, so he adopted a name close to "citron", lemon.
In Indonesia we call it Sitron/Sitrun.
We do have peugeot in indonesia though its rare now but my mom pronounce it as “pusot”
Is the Swiss girl Turkish? Her name is completely Turkish.
His parents are Turkish. He is also Turkish. But he considers himself Swiss because he was born in Switzerland. A degenerate Turk who does everything to be European.
She also Türkish
literally noone says Benz in Turkey. It's 'Mersedes' or in slang / street language version 'Merso'
2:22 this is so true! Both my aunt and her daughter are named Mercedes 😂
Commenting about the video:☹️ Commenting about Draga:🙂👍
In Serbia, actually, we say ŠevroleT (ChevroleT)! Not Ševrole (Chevrole). :P
@@vatroslavmorbidovic4105 Absolutely, Vatroslave. We pronounce every letter.
Maybe it's Russian influence, cause we don't pronounce "t", it just Шэвроле.
I've heard both.

In Indonesia, the Esemka car brand is the most famous, many Indonesians use this brand.
In Russia, we say Мерседес бенз (MersedEs benz)

It was interesting!
"At least you have brands"
AHAHAHAH 😭🤣😂
Indonesia dulu ada namanya PERKASA tapi khusus truk doang.
It should be noted that Louis Chevrolet was a Swiss national. There was also a time in the United States when a BMW would be referred to as a "Bimmer," but the peak use of that terminology was like the 1980s.
9:00 sounded like "порче" in Bulgarian and I had a great laugh 😂😂😂
Funnily enough, the brazilian pronunciation would have sounded a lot like the serbian one at times
Citroen and Peugeot is both exitst here in Indonesia, even though not many people own it
Le fondateur de Citroën était d’origine néerlandaise. Il avait adopté le surnom « Citron » en néerlandais « Citroën ». Donc, ça signifie bien citron.
Sorry for my Indonesian fella. I think she never saw Citroën and Peugeot in our street before. It's okay bc both cars are very rare in Indonesia. For Citroën we called it SITRUN bc of the Dutch influence, OE spelled like U. It was from old spelling before enhanced and refined in 1972. And for Peugeot, we pronounced it by PUJZO 🙏🙏👍😉
I like how beautiful and cute french girl react to Draga's knowledge : " You are so cool" 😊🤗
Japanesse girl pronouncing is so cute too 😊
Funny thing, Americans occasionally say 'Merc' for Mercedes-Benz, but a lot folks forget about Ford's second brand 'Mercury' which also was shortened to 'Merc'
12:25 Gee ma in Indonesia that car brand is kinda common, people i know pronounce it as pisut or pieozo 😂
Jennifer is correct about 3 Languages: German, French and Italian. The 4th one is actually Romansh, not English.
Perancis mengsedih brandnya gak terkenal lah apa kabar brand kita 😂 terlena "DIJAJAH" produk Jepang!.
In France, for Mercedes-Benz, I have never heard "Benz", we just say "Mercedes" or "Merco" in slang.
In Germany Citroën is pronounced "Ente" which means duck (2CV). Cool and iconic very soft suspension car that gives you only 1.10 cm space for 2 persons.
The french girl doesn't know Bugatti was french is peak comedy 😂
Bugatti is complicated. An Italian man went to Germany to found a car company (also because a lot of the early engineering was happening in the country) and also met his German wife there. Then ww1 happened and Molsheim, where he based his company became French, later so did he. The company stopped existing for a while and was re-created in Italy. They went bankrupt again and Volkswagen bought it and placed the HQ (at least the final assembly) back in Molsheim, France to where it was originally founded, while pretty much all engineering and design was done by VW.
So you could say: It's an EU effort 😀
Bugatti had several opportunities to obtain German citizenship if he had wanted to. However, he chose to be French by applying for French citizenship, just as his brother did himself. And the company is still based in France today. QED.
In Germany we also say "Benzer" with the Z pronounced like S, in the US a BMW is also sometimes called a "Beamer".
We have two car brands in Spain: "Seat" and "Cupra" (They are owned by the Volkswagen group, but they are spanish brands).
In reality we used to have one brand, which was Seat, and Cupra was the name of the more powerful versions of the Seat cars, but some years ago Cupra became a brand on his own, so now they are two independent brands. They are quite known (in Europe at least).
Even though i know many words of german i still saying the name of the brand in my original language 😂, since i am used to hear and speak the most, Mercedes-Benz for me is just Mercedes for example
I've never heard another American pronounce Hyundai the way Haley did. I've only ever heard Hun-day (rhymes with Sunday) or Hun-die. I've never heard anyone actively pronounce the "y" in hYundai. Another one was Audi- I've only heard it pronounced like "aw-dee" not "ow-dee" how she said it. Where is Haley from? Maybe other parts of the country say it differently? That's the thing about being American, we have too many accents and pronunciations here lol.
Same for Porsche. We never would say it like Porsha. We straight up would say it as Porsh. I don’t know where she thinks we pronounce some of these names like that because we don’t.
Korean pronunciation always sounds so excited :D love it
Now, German and English are not just both Germanic languages but also closer related as West Germanic languages. VW/Volkswagen should not be too difficult to already SEE that "Volk' is a cognate of 'Folk' and 'Wagen' exists also in English even if it is often used in a slightly different context (but still close enough to get the idea). No rocket science. I understand that many dont realize quickly that the English 'car' and the German 'Karre' or 'Karren' are also cognates but 'Volk' and 'Folk' or German 'Hund' and English 'Hound' (like in Grey Hound) should very quickly be noticed. And the 'double-U' is one of those inconsistent English pronunciation, because also in English one usually pronounce the letters like the start of words with that letter, only in a few cases its different not for logic but historical reasons. English often also speak the 'W' like the Germans (and others). You say 'Wagon' similar to German or 'West' (exactly like in German' etc... you dont say 'DoubleU-agon' or 'DoubleU-est'. The historic reason is that the Latin alphabet had no 'W' and also no 'U' and the 'V' was usually spoken as 'U'. Thats why you find on classic and neo-classic buildings often a 'V' instead of an 'U' like in 'AVGVSTVS' (instead of 'AUGUSTUS'). Now the Germanic 'W' was at (early-) medieval time added to the Latin alphabet and built just by doubling the 'V' which was still usually spoken as 'U' which resulted in many regions as 'DoubleU'. But the 'U' also was introduced which made this 'DoubleU' kind of meaningless plus in more modern times usually most languages tend to speak the alphabet in a consistent way of like starting words (in case of consonants just adding a vowel). Also the inconsistency with the 'T' in English is one of those things which makes English vocally less intelligible as it could be. You also say 'Tea' as hard 'T' like in German etc. but in other cases (as in the video) often more as a 'D' even if you pronounce it also harder like 'T' (Tea, Ten, Tsunami, tired, talk ...) - like in German. What exist in German is also some dialects or slopy everyday speaking who sometimes make the 'T' soft (which might be the reason why it became also in Standard-English a thing. Not enough academized!)
In Italy we pronounce
1. Mercedes benz _mercedes benz_ or just _mercedes_ (c=ch)
2. BMW _bi emme vu_
3. Audi _identical to Spanish_
4. Volkswagen _folsvaghen_
5. Porsche mostly _porsh_ but also _porshe_
6. Bugatti _identical to Spanish_
7. Citroen _sitroen_
8. Peugeot similar to french but peu is pronounced pe so it's _peshiò_
9. Chrysler _craisler_
10. Tesla _like worldwide_
11. Chevrolet _shevrolè_
12. Nissan _identical to Serbian_
13. Lexus _identical to Spanish_
14. Toyota _again the same as Spanish_
15. Genesis _English loan_
16. Kia _the same as Spanish_
17. Hyundai _iundai_ Identically to Spanish, our h is mute too
18.
1) Nobody says Benz in France, we say Mercedes.
2) Citroën means lemon in Dutch. André Citroën, the founder, had Dutch origins.
Ahhh now it makes sense that it sound like Zitrone (lemon) in German
Benz exists in France but it's slang. And outdated (mostly used in the 90s and beginning of the 2000s). Most people would use "Merco" instead for slang
@@cdrw92And also a lot of people just BM and we don't say Bougatti
Vietnam should be in this video, they have vinfast. And we (indo) have one as well, namely "ESEMKA"😂, the first ever live action "invisible boat mobile" 😎
Most people in the U.S. pronounce Hyundai as HON-day…especially in the south. Even commercial voice actors do it.
"Borshch in a Porsche" sounds like a Dr. Seuss book.
Sounds like a hungarian meal, to me.
Türkçede kim Benz diyor? Ben şimdiye kadar duymadım.
Que grande la canaria diciendo la pronunciacion canaria y despues la peninsular 😅😅
Some Americans do say "Benz," but it's a little old-school at this point.
the girl representing switzerland, isnt she also turkish?
Yeah shes türkish
Finally someone who knows merci 😂
more Genesia please 🥰
Togg (Turkish EV Brand) to Aleyna: „Am I a joke to you?“
I remember another video, from "Feli from Germany" if I remember correctly, where she spoke about americans calling a Mercedes Benz a Merck, and that nobody from Germany would immediately know what they meant...
9:45 loved her reaction
