I've got another pronunciation video

1830
00:16

I made a video a couple of months ago
5
21850
2160
00:24
about commonly mispronounced brand names,
6
24010
3560
00:27
and people seem to really really want
7
27570
2280
00:29
commonly mispronounced car names.
8
29850
2890
00:32
Now, I'm not a car expert.

2610
00:35
I only passed my driving test a year ago.
10
35350
3333
00:40
But I take great interest in pronunciation
11
40200
3170
00:43
and I've done my research, and I'm here
12
43370
2570
00:45
to help you guys out, it will help you
13
45940
2070
00:48
with your speaking and listening.
14
48010
2000
00:50
If you want to improve your speaking
15
50010
1430
00:51
and listening even further, I really recommend
16
51440
2660
00:54
that you start using audiobooks
17
54100
2280
00:56
whilst reading, so you can find out
18
56380
1850
00:58
the pronunciation of the words that you read.
19

The platform I recommend is audible.com.

01:03
You can get a 30-day free trial
21
63570

01:05
which is a free audiobook, amazing,
22
65280
2600
01:07
if you click on the link in the description box,
23
67880
2220
01:10
and there are loads of recommendations
24
70100
1500
01:11
for different levels of English, down there as well.
25
71600
3220
01:14
Right, let's get started with the lesson.
26
74820
2500
01:17
Okay, so I've got 10 car brands in total.
27
77320
2970
01:20
Let's start with the Italian ones.
28
80290
2890
01:23
The first one, this one.
29
83180
2110
01:25
A lot of people call it Alfa Ro-meo,
30
85290
2840
01:28
because it sounds like Romeo and Juliet,
31
88130
2540
01:30
but it's an Italian brand, so it should be
32
90670
2690
01:33
Al-fa ro-MEY-oh.
33
93360
1440
అల్ఫా రొమే యో
01:34
So it's not Alfa Ro-meo, it's al-fa ro-MEY-oh,
34
94800
3530
అల్ఫా రొమే యో
01:38
or Alfa ro-Mey-oh.
35
98330
1560
అల్ఫా రొమే యో
01:39
The next one, not such a common brand,
36
99890
2420
01:42
but I have heard it referred to as a Lan-cia,
37
102310
3210
01:45
and it should be lan-cha, lan-cha.
38
105520
3900
లాన్స
01:49
Now the next one, number three,
39
109420
1210
01:50
is a very expensive car brand,
40
110630
2900
01:53
and we tend to pronounce it incorrectly
41
113530
2890
01:56
quite frequently.
42
116420
1130
01:57
A lot of people might say lam-bor-gini, or lam-bourg-ini.
43
117550
4800
02:02
It should be lam-bor-ghee-nee, lam-bor-ghee-nee.
44
122350
3300
లంబొర్ గీని
02:05
So it's that bor sound.
45
125650
2330
02:07
I don't think we have to worry
46
127980
1090
02:09
too much about the rolled r's
47
129070
1670
02:10
because not everybody can do that,
48
130740
1600
02:12
but we should at least try bor, lam-bor-ghee-nee.
49
132340
3263
02:16
The next one, isn't maser-ah-ti, it should be
50
136610
2303
02:20
mazz-uh-ra-ti.
51
140830
1520
మజరాతి
02:22
I think you'll be forgiven if you say maser-ah-ti.
52
142350
3805
02:26
(laughs)
53
146155
1245
02:27
Okay, the next one, a German car name.
54
147400
3400
02:30
A lot of people might say Aw-di, but
55
150800
3580
02:34
if we're going to be like the Germans,
56
154380
1400
02:35
we need to say ow-dee, ow-dee.
57
155780
3570
అవ్ డి
02:39
The next one, another German car brand,
58
159350
2010
02:41
this one I did mention in my brand video.
59
161360
2510
02:43
In the UK, we always call this Porsche,
60
163870
3330
02:47
but it should have a schwa at the end,
61
167200
1610
02:48
it needs to be por-shuh, por-shuh.
62
168810
2470
పో(ర్)ష
02:51
The next one, another German one.
63
171280
2020
02:53
This one, volks-wagen?
64
173300
3360
02:56
In Germany, they would say follks-vah-gen.
65
176660
3440
03:00
The v makes a ff sound, and the w makes a v sound.
66
180100
5000
03:06
Follks-vah-gen, follks-vah-gen.
67
186610
3730
ఫోక్స్ వాగన్
03:10
Okay, the next one is possibly the most
68
190340
2980
03:13
complicated one we have on this list today.
69
193320
2270
03:15
It's a Swedish car brand.
70
195590
2920
03:18
I don't even know what I would call this,
71
198510
2200
03:20
I would just give it a go.
72
200710
2860
03:23
Ko-enig-segg, ko-enig-segg, ko-enig-segg sounds beautiful.
73
203570
3820
03:27
It should be kuhn-nig-seg, kuhn-nig-seg.
74
207390
3550
కానిగ్సెగ్
03:30
Now the next one, we've got this one.
75
210940
2573
03:34
A lot of people would call it shev-ro-let.
76
214930
2480
03:37
People get confused by that T on the end,
77
217410
2390
03:39
but it's not pronounced, it is shev-ruh-ley, shev-ruh-ley.
78
219800
5000
ష వర్లే
03:44
And the final one, and this is the one
79
224970
1670
03:46
I'm going to struggle with most
80
226640
1660
03:48
because it's not the french uh sound.
81
228300
2870
03:51
It is this one.
82
231170
1513
03:54
It often gets pronounced as citron or citroën,
83
234013
4037
03:58
but it should be pronounced see-troh-en.
84
238050
4200
04:02
But you could just say cit-roen, see-troh-en.
85

సీ త్రో ఎన్
04:06
Man, I don't know if I'll ever
86
246229
1471
04:07
be able to master the French car brands
87
247700
2570
04:10
but maybe I'll just buy Italian ones.
88
250270
3670
04:13
That being said, I've got a Mini Cooper.
89
253940
2530
04:16
