Flashman Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 You say Jagwar, I say Jag-U-R. Some words are pronounced differently internationally and accepted as such. I doubt very much an American main Jaguar dealer would use the correct and original English style when selling his cars (Jag-U-R). In the same way, in Europe with such a mix of languages and styles I am sure there is no 100% correct way, obviously you can try to copy the manufacturers native tongue, although in Switzerland I am sure there are a few issues too, considering they speak French, German and Italian in different parts.

Then let's not try to bother pronouncing anything correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jkerouac Posted July 27, 2008 Report Share Posted July 27, 2008 I suggest we merge this thread with Andy's other thread: So how do you pronounce Ingeneur while under water? Or how do you pronounce Ingeneur while under water in a Geman pool? vs. how do you pronounce Ingeneur while under water in a French pool?
