<p>Here's the list:</p> <ol> <li> <p><strong>Shein</strong> - this one I've been saying wrong. I've always pronounced it as 'sheen' whereas the correct pronunciation is 'she-in'</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Nutella</strong> - another one I've been saying wrong. Apparently its not 'nuh-tella' its 'NEW-tella'. I've been turning that U into the schwa.</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Aldi</strong> - I generally say it as 'ALL-DEE' not the 'Al-Dee' its mean't to be.</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Ikea</strong> - I used to say 'eye-key-uh' until the TV adverts came out with the pronunciation guide of '<em>Ee-kay-uh'</em></p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Nike</strong> - The correct pronunciation is 'Ni-Key' not rhyming with bike. I'm pretty sure I use both.</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Adidas</strong> - Say it as "Add-dee-dass" not 'er-dee-dus'</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Porsche</strong> - A lot of people pronounce this as 'porsh'. , but its two syllables : <em>Por-shuh</em></p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Primark</strong> - Apparently some people say this as PREE-mark. But the way I've always heard it said (which is the correct way) is PRY-mark.</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Adobe</strong> - not 'A-dobe' but 'Uh-doe-bee'</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Hua Wei</strong> - correct pronunciation is WAH-WAY not 'her-wah way'</p> </li> </ol> <p> </p> <p>Want to get in touch ?
