They don't know how to pronounce their own brand name...

Pantene - It's PAN-TEN surely? Not PAN-TEEN as per this glam old ad.
AIBU?

I will probably need to replace my car this year and have been looking at alternatives. One I have ruled out is the Renault Kajar because of its stupid name. There are several ways to pronounce Kajar and however it's pronounced it sounds uncomfortable to say.
Cuh- jar?
K-jar?
Car-jar?
Or should the J have a soft sound?

[IAmNotAUserNumber]

Oops, I've just checked and it's actually Kadjar - which is still a silly name and equally unpronounceable.

This thread is doing my head in.

Bulgari - it should be BULLgari not BulGARi ;-)

Bulgari - it should be BULLgari not BulGARi

The only time I've ever heard it said out loud was on an episode of Private Practice (Grey's Anatomy spin-off). They said BULLgari.

Americans pronounce car brands weirdly... Maaaah-zda for Mazda and Hunday for Hyundai.

[ClockBusCanada]

All of the people going with pree-mark for Primark, do you also say tree-angle for triangle?

I love Scots Vowel Length Rule, it seems completely random but somehow everyone gets it.

I heard Nick Ferrari say BulGARi

[odilethecrocodile]

I've heard people say:
Dee'aw for Dior, which the French pronounce D'yor, one syllable
Fay'leeceetay Perpetch'way for Félicité Perpétue, pronounced Fe'licitay Per'petoo (a rose variety)
Mrs Chollymon'dowlay for Mrs Cholmondeley, pronounced Chum'ley (a clematis variety, but a forgivable mistake unless you are my irritating Esstay Lawday-wearing exMIL)
Far'zate for Phase Eight, and last but not least, I give you
Fokes'wahrgon for Volkswagen (yes, once again my not-to-be-outdone exMIL, bless her)

Americans avoid the flat A of pasta too. They say pah-sta. It's not just Mazda.
