To ask you how you pronounce this cheese?

[LimpidPools]

How do you pronounce Gouda?

Gooda (YABU) or Gowda (YANBU)?

(If you're Dutch speaking and can say it properly properly, then I'm sorry, but you'll just have to shake your head and write a comment. Or silently move on whilst despairing of how English speakers mangle the names of your cheeses, artists and doubtless anything else we come across.)

Goo-dah.

Otherwise the joke doesn't work. What does the cheese say when he looks in the mirror?

Halloumi, Looking Gouda!

Gooda

Gowda.

As in cow & now.

Gow-da

goo da

Isn't it how- da in Dutch?

I say Gowda though....

I thought it was a bit like "schow-da".

Gow da

Was going to say it's more Howda. With a chokey noise :D

Lotsofphlegm-how-da.

Howda is how by German husband says it.

Throaty kind of schow or schau and then da.

Shaking head

Lotsofphlegm-how-da.

This sounds almost correct

Still a bit gutted I didn't 'accidentally' put this in baby names.

I do actually know how to say it in Dutch. (In theory, if not in practice.) What I really want to know is how other people say it in English, iyswim.

Because it seems I'm saying it differently to most people I know and I was surprised!

I speak Dutch and say gow-da... mostly because if you say it with a hard G in the UK people think you’re choking

I think most people say goo-da though, that’s the pronunciation I hear the most

Gow dah

@Isthisfinallyit

Lotsofphlegm-how-da.

This sounds almost correct

I love this, really made me laugh.

The right way to say it in English would be gow-da. That's also how you'd say the name of the place in English too.

Gooda as in boo

It’s got quite a gutteral gh sound.
Maybe you should start eating Edam instead?

Ghow-da

In my local excellent cheese shop a Dutch man came in and asked for something that nobody in the queue understood but fortunately the shop owner did. It sounded like "old cow" but was of course Gouda.
I agree with @undwrcaffeinated about he lots of phlegm. I have asked Dutch friends to say it and that is how it sounds.

Hoo-da
