13 Foods You're Pronouncing Wrong

Well... NOW I'm hungry... and it wasn't for anything he was talking about.
 
Oh man, it bugs me so much when people say "JIE-ROH" for gyro.

Also hair should never stand up that much from the surface of your head. ;)
 
So many cringeworthy ones out there.

Didn't know the bruschetta one actually !oops!
 
Also not related to food, try saying Macedon correctly (Ma-keh-don) and watch how many people rush to correct you as saying it wrong, when you aren't.

Well somebody decided to Latinize the kappa with a 'c' for whatever reason.

Hebrew is even worse. There are no 'w, th, or j' sounds. Don't exist yet that is how the language is Anglicized.

Coming from a language with no silent or soft consonants, and after having lived in the west for a good 10 years, I still don't understand why these things exist.

Our language was designed from the ground up. When I was in 2nd grade, the final test we had to take was our teacher reading out a bunch of nonsensical words and we had to write them down. There was only 1 way to write these words. Each letter in a word for us serves a very precise purpose. And the way to test this was pronounce nonsensical words and everyone should write down the exact same things.

That's how a modern language is suppose to be like. This is why back in my home country there's no such thing as spelling bee. By 3rd grade, you should be able to spell out everything you hear.

Ones I've been pronouncing right: charcuterie, cognac, espresso, prosciutto (and bon appetit)

Ones I've been pronouncing wrong: bruschetta, gnocchi, endive, paella

(don't care about the other five as I've never heard of them) =;

P.S. He says liqourice in the vid - the British pronounce 'liquorice' completely different to the U.S.

I always laugh when I hear 'lick-reesh' on American shows. :lol:

We pronounce it 'lick-kurr-iss' or 'lick-kurr-us'.

That's interesting.... There is a small town by that name in Wayne County, NY, just east of Rochester. Out here, everyone pronounces it "Mass-A-Dun." :D

Of course, we also have Chili (pronounced "Chy-lye") and Charlotte (pronounced "Shar-Lot")

Maybe we're all screwed up here in the Rochester area.....:D
