NATIONAL MOST MIS-PRONOUNCED NAME:
Carrefour. Sometimes even pronounced as Carry 4! On second thoughts, why bother pronouncing those French brands
like Peugeot, Renault or Citroen correctly. I think it sounds better, when the local mechanics say ‘Pew Jeot’.
When I was in school, Milo was always ‘Mee Lo’, now that I’m sophisticated, I say ‘My Lo’.
So don’t be embarrassed saying ‘Carry 4′ when the Mat Sallehs shamelessly pronounce orang utan as ‘rangutan’.
