Oh come on.....some ppl are not fortunate enough to be born here or get here when they were young...

Do you think they really want to mispronounce what they are trying to say? That doesn’t mean they are dumb.

Give them a break.

Yes. So what?

 

ummm not really....Maybe I should get out more. dunno

i didn't say that fobs are dumb...notice how i used the word OR instead of AND; therefore separating fob and stupid.

Nope, not yet have I run into ppl who can not pronounce "Ah-Cue-RA", but I DO notice something, Asian/Japanese(Yes, that includes my parents) like to pronounce it as "Ah-Ku-La".... heheh

...........
Like so many life experiences, it is left for you to fill in the blank or to leave the blank as is..

 

When I was first shopping for a replacement, my first choices were Volkswagen Passat, Toyota Avalon and Nissan Maxima (which I kept referring to as "Datsun"). Thanks to Edmund's, I finally considered the Acura (but pronounced it A-Cure-Ah). I'm now referring to the car as "Darla" (since I know how to pronounce that!!!).

There aren't many folks familiar with the "Darla" motor car, however!!!

 

No... but what exactly is your point?

yeah, the same people who can't pronounce Lexus.

 

I think I'll just call it

Ah Cool Rah!

Sooo much fun to drive!

 

I call it Aaa gue Lua. So what if I can't speak perfect english.

 

Hey, since some of us have a problem with pronunciations let try something new -- let's pronounce it backwards

All together now....ACURA spelled backwards is ARUCA....is everyone still with me?

Sounds kind of mysterious, like a hidden island somewhere out in the Pacific. Cool!

 

Mmmmm. Not bad. A seemingly pointless message generates 15 responses.......that is, unless Intira explains the mystery behind the question!
