This from the nation that still says "an hospital"

Gets me every time

'erbs' sounds more sophisticated and european e.g. would you like some fine erbs on your omelette, kind sir? sort of how they would say it in the king arthur times

Pronunciation in North America differs as wildly as pronunciation in Europe.

Living in New England, these are the ones I hear.

>quinoa as in quinn oh a
>turmeric as in tur mer ic
>worstershire as in worst er sheer
>espresso as in espresso
>croissant as in cleaursauwnt

peh-kahn instead of pecan

Fun fact, the L in Almond is silent.

Actually, that wasn't very fun at all.

>ah-monds
that doesnt sound right 2bh

Do you honestly pronounce the L in almonds? Fuck me

>all-monds
thats the proper way to pronounce it

I have never heard someone not pronounce the L in real life so it could be a regional thing.

Sir, you're embarrassing yourself.

Have you actually encountered people who can't pronounce quinoa?

It's weird when one of my "meh" staples becomes "omg best thing evar"

>everyone i know can pronouce quinoa correctly
lots of people mispronounce it, the correct pronunciation isn't obvious from the spelling, you must live in veganfaggotsville

No, but the massive TV/radio/"let's be trendy" corporate campaigns means that people have heard it before.

Gentle bong, the only reason your incongruous briar of a fucking language is relevant on the world stage is because of America. We'll do whatever we want with it.

car-mull just sounds retarded

Get fucked seppo

You don't own this fucking board you poor piece of shit weirdo Europeans. Go make your own damn website where you can be gay and talk about eating raw meat and dirt among your own subhuman kind.

its a valid question dont get so triggered

Buh-na-na instead of Banana

>water instead of wadder

I pronounce it "wer-shish-shish-er shosh"

There weren't any questions in the OP, it's just people acting as if language is a matter of right or wrong.

>wtf is herbs?
...is a valid question, perhaps if you were European you would understand simple things like that

The herb thing apparently comes from the fact that the word is French and Americans do their best (worst) to pronounce it that way with the silent H.

>herbs

Ēow mǣnan "wyrt". Cweþan Englisc, soþ Englisc.

Can we at least agree the Canadians are worse than us? Why do you pick on the states more than those retards?

Old English is best English

None of the posts in this reply chain contain a question. I am European.

>I am European.
oh dear

I'm not even american you fucking bong.
I'm Swiss and I'll now call that the Warcester sauce.

Turbot. Makes me crease every time I hear some fat philistine refer to a ‘nice piece of turbo’ like a slang term for a rock of crack or some shit

>King Arthur times
>French accent
>French
Just stop.

Yeah I pronounced it kee-noah until I started working in a restaurant

That being said I never had to pronounce Quinoa until I started working in a restaurant

Fine, William the Conqueror times then.

>chaklet instead of chocolate
>aygs instead of eggs

>and one large fry on the side
>I could care less

i know a guy who unironically pronounces worcestershire sauce like "War-Chester-Shy-Er"

should i stop being his friend?

How about you try to teach him the correct pronounciation gently like a fucking human being ?
