[@zsofiasej]

+Jessica Sebastião understandable, but I think it's just confusing because the whole purpose of the video is to give definitive pronunciations on hard-to-pronounce names. But how are we to know which way to say them if we're given conflicting pronunciations? I just think it was lazy on the part of the creators. They should have made sure the models' pronuncations were uniform and accurate.

+Kaitlyn Fajilan lol i think the pink lips say it with an American accent since not everyone can mimic the true pronunciation

[@pianoonparade]

+Faith Lapri I feel like the girl who said Oswald Helgasson was pink lips though... anyway, OP (Kaitlyn) they're just trying to show the general gist of it. For example, not everyone knew that the 'h' in hermes isn't pronounced, or that loewe is pronounced 'lo-eh-ve' I mean, the whole time, I'd been pronouncing it "low" because my primary school principal was miss loewe and pronounced 'low' ahahha

So that rhythmic lilt you hear is them pausing after the first t to differentiate it from the sound of the next t ;-)

Yass, the original word 'nike' (nee-keh) comes from the ancient greek nike=goddess of victory or more easily the noun 'victory'. Maybe you already know, but in the greek mythology there's a tale about a soldier who runs for days from the place where the last battle against the persians has been to his city, in order to announce that the greek poleis have won the war. He runs, he never stops and when he finally arrives, he can just scream three times 'nike, nike, nike', 'victory, victory, victory' before dying. Ancient greeks are such drama queens🙄😂

I LOVEDDD the styling for this...sooo amazing! But I feel like they still pronounced Hermes wrong.... The "s" is silent in French!!!!!! "Air-may"

[@iyawakarehen]

Wrong. In 25 years of being alive and French, I have not once heard a fellow French person not pronounce the s in Hermès.

[@katianovakk]

iyawakarehen I can't understand that! It seems like it goes against the laws of French! Have you ever heard anyone say "Brugez, Belgium"? Or "vacancez"? "Françaisez"?! No, it's "Brooj", "vay-cahnss", and "Fran-sez." Am I right?

[@iyawakarehen]

doodl3bugg13 Well, yes, I have heard uneducated French speakers say Bruges and pronounce its s but no one would ever say these as z's like your English speaker brain seems to believe, a s is a s not a z. Also it's /brüj/ and /vah-cans/ and these final s are silent because they're plural marks. You don't say un hermè, des hermès, it's Hermès as in a proper noun that you pronounce all the letters of like you will have to pronounce all the letters of the names Inès or Tobias including the s.

[@katianovakk]

iyawakarehen Ok, no need to be a know-it-all ass. I used "z"s because I was trying to emphasize the use of the "s" sound. Also I just said that you DON'T pronounce all those "s"s and you corrected me as though I had said the opposite....Also, if we really wanna bitch each other out, I can tell you that it's not "...a s is a s not a z...," it's, "...AN s is AN s is a z..." We use the word "an" before vowel sounds in English--- but your "French speaker brain" probably can't comprehend that. Thank you for answering my question, albeit with a fucking attitude. (PS: I know I also have an attitude, but you started it.)

[@secretstories]

doodl3bugg13 They pronounced it right, in France we pronounce the "s". But the model pronounce "givenchy" right but the "lips" don't.

Now I won’t blame myself when I’m visiting the next fashion show

I feel like people need to understand that just because a name is native to our english language doesn't mean it is universally known as that pronunciation. To think that just because the name 'Alexander McQueen' is easy because we know how to pronounce it and no one else should have a problem with it is very westernized outlook on the world. There was no uproar when they pronounced japanese, italian, or fench brand names because that is not our native language, and we see that as a reason to be pronounced. There are going to be people who don't speak english fluently and see this video to understand how to pronounce Alexander McQueen because to them it is a hard name to pronounce, much like us for a japanese brand.

[@Ri-wk2cc]

Haha I waited for Y and to my horror Yves Saint Laurent didn't even show up. Great. Guess I'm stuck saying YSL for the rest of my life, lol.

[@NB_703]

Think…. eve sa lora but with the n being like a bit of a whine voice. Sorry if that doesn't help. :/ I tried.

[@NB_703]

oh. at 2:13 they say saint laurent! the yves is pronounced like eve.. like christmas eve.

[@blakkone4000]

Yves Saint Laurent = "eve san lauren"; basically silent "t"s on both.

[@savannahregister8715]

Well the brand is actually called Saint Laurent or Saint Laurent Paris currently, so you don't have to worry about the Yves unless the new(ish) creative director Vaccarello renames the brand back with the Yves (: The YSL logo is only used for cosmetics and handbags + currently and it's said just as is, "Y S L."

[@ivanstanic2335]

Savannah Register doesn't sound like you know what you're talking about. You might want to look into that

[@stellajacobs1330]

Were those Lindsey Wixsons lips?

[@DavevanThol]

Taste the screen:)!

[@dominiquee901]

The visuals are beautiful in this video omg

[@camillafrara6658]

After years of "versacy" now we have the french R...this is really frustrating

[@ninalempicka2948]

the french R is actually less annoying than "versacyyyyyy"

[@keirichan]

ive been pronouncing wrong NIKE my whole life

[@nourhanneahmad]

me too ! :D

[@bellah5985]

Nourhanne Ahmad how did you pronounce it? Lol

[@nourhanneahmad]

not Nkieeeyy but Nike. :D

[@nourhanneahmad]

Nike just like pronouncing light :D

[@_smith_s1570]

Kayleigh Meowski i think it's correct to say "nayk" everywhere exept in u.s.a where people said "ni-keyy"

[@MmMJessica89]

Is there somewhere I can buy the music in the background? Does the "song" have a name? I saw the music was only credited as "Tristan Bechet at Cadence NY." As a side note, this video is awesome. Really well done. I've watched it five times, and I was only here for one of the designers, lol.

[@Thepomafame]

Nike naikee? i always said naik

[@NB_703]

haha so does my mom. It's Naikee.

[@Thepomafame]

nathalie buzaglo really? then my country has always lied to me, cause everybody we spell naik. It would be weird for me to say naikee.

[@JurassicBarko]

Naik is litteraly the verb to fuck in tunisian dialect. Usually here they say nyke or naikee

[@OmarSunAndLights]

[@edurittenhouse]

Thank you. I had have a hard time pronouncing Alexander McQueen.

[@aurorab7074]

All the Italian brands are mispronounced in some way or another

[@natelyless469]

They're pretty right instead

[@aurorab7074]

Instead of what?

[@princetonbound]

Such a cool video. Love how it was created. Fun. Cute fashion video

[@kyon5323]

1:19 okay sis, hold on. I can hear "kiss my ass" when im not paying attention.

[@NayelytheCat]

Lauren Fleur OMGGGG 💀💀💀💀

[@Lisamarieliza]

I'm here because my customer said I'm ignorant and I couldn't pronounce Hermes, givenchy, ysl, and bvlgari with a shorter u sound

[@docd1o1]

[@arymayn4895]

Surprisingly good french accent indeed.

[@AndreaAlison]

[@Sonifizzle]

Ahhh nooo this video makes a Prounanciation nazi mad :D the lips girl pronounces many names totally different than the other models and speaks with a French accent. No like here :(

[@pacificcoastbby125]

Some of the designers names were French and she pronounced them wrong, so I don't think she's French

[@tigrette11]

It's not a french accent.

[@Uusarushirley]

Nope that's definitely not a french accent cause she butchered the french designer names. Pretty sure she's american tho...

[@atamari563]

It was a french accent the girl prononces saint Laurent wrong btw

[@felixvandenberghe8920]

Ann demeulemeester is pronounced COMPLETELY wrong, and I know this for sure cause she has a dutch name and dutch is my native language. Edit: kris van assche is also wrong Edit: walter van beerendonck too

[@acigarette]

Ja, ze hebben alle vlaamse en nederlandse namen helemaal verkeerd gedaan, maar ja, Amerikanen zeggen ook "Van goo" ipv "van gogh" dus ik geef het al op.

[@YEMI.accessory]

Na Ann demeulemeester gaf ik het al op!

[@TheSkinnyZ]

How does one say the names? I'm German, so I guess pronouncing them instinctively would be kind of close?

[@simplysheepie2207]

I died at "pOo YeEzY" 😂😂😂 I just can't-

[@pershawww]

I like how the first girl that said Issey Miyake said it correctly but then the second girl totally butchered it

[@ZeldaFoxEars]

poo yeezy. yeezy taught me

[@molieros]

Could some make a "How to pronounce the hardest names in Cthulhu Mythos" video?

[@jojoaugustus1383]

The title should be How to pronounce the hardest names in Fashion with an American-ish accent. Most of them were pronounced in the wrong way. Especially the French ones

[@Psychotechmusichead]
