Schotsmannetje Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 Not only a quality goalkeeping prospect but a top bloke to. I'm definitely not saying you're wrong, in fact the video proves you're right, but for me as a Dutch person it makes no sense whatsoever that Paris is pronounced Pa-ree and Lloris is pronounced Lo-ree-se I've never see him IRL, only in FM. And in FM he kicks ass, to put it in an Eric Cartman kinda way. Now screw you guys, I'ma going home. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Serrano Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 I LOVE this thread. It's important to note that people with different mother tongues will pronounce things differently. If Hugo Lloris moves to Spain he won't be Loree anymore he'll be Yo-rees. But it's nice to know what the original intention is. Also some players maybe from a certain country but their names will originate elsewhere which means even they may not pronounce it "correctly" - like Jag-ee-el-ka... Che-Reth. I think. Gotta roll your tongue on the 'r', though. The first part is more like a hard H sound - like you're clearing your throat a little. He-reth but don't roll the r. The r is only rolled if there are two like perro (dog) and pero (but). Canabary explains it perfectly: Iker Bengoetxea = eek-er Ben-goh-et-che-a tx is prenounced che in basque. sheh if he's catelonian. "Aurrekoetxea" Ouch.Aw-re-coe-tchea? Nearly - you need to pronounce the middle e: Ow-re (with a rolling r if you can manage it and re as in red not reach) -ko (like collect) -e (like education not email) -che -a (like apple, not abraham) Day-vid New-GentDay-vid New-Gunt You get the gist I think it's New-gent as in gentlemen I always heard it pronounced Und-love I always said it End-Love Love the Pleat-quotes!! When he says Chimbomba I cry like a schoolgirl with laughter. I nearly wet myself reading this: Someone should tell Pleat that it's Jose "Bosingwa" not "Boss-swinger".Also Teddy Sheringham likes to be called...Teddy Sheringham. NOT :- Terry Sheddingham Teddy Sheridan And yes, as someone earlier mentioned - Yossi Benayoun, not "Benna-noon". That always rattles my cage when watching ITV Champions League! PS. What does David Pleat actually want? Go away. I'd rather listen to wideboy Ian Wright. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well as a tribute to the discovery of knowing how to properly pronounce his name, i'll post a screenshot of the fella in question: I bought him from Bilbao, then sold him to Celtic who in turn sold him on to Inter. Tbh i just always called him Jon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AB-forever Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 Generally u's in Spanish are silent when they're in front of an e (ue, Miguel is pronounced Meegel, with emphasis on gel and a soft g like in great) or an i (ui, Guillermo is pronounced Geeyermo, again with a soft g and with emphasis on yer). And about Lloris/Paris and the s in the end, it is only pronounced in some names, never in words that end with s. And the final s is only pronounced in names that originate from Latin, Greek and Catalan amongst others. Lloris is originally Catalan but in French you just say Loris.

mastema Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Victor Irineu ? The -eu part is pronounced as e-oo (short u). Similar to 'Beowulf' (beulf) So it's ee-ree-ne'u (/irine'u/ in IPA). Accent falls on the e. A rule of thumb for Romanian names: in almost all cases they are pronounced as they are written (phonetic language). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TOUGHGUY Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 Frejlach is fray-lakh, more or less. "Ch" in Czech is a digraph representing the [x] sound in IPA. Think Bach the composer, loch as in a Scottish lake... a soft sound between "h" as in 'ah!' and "kh" with a silent k. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
