Stupid cocks

Another victim of the in House drive byOriginally Posted by Der Kaiser
They say jump .....you say how high ?
In Spanish, it would be pronounced "Hay-Seus", probably in Portuguese too.
I thought there was more culture in Cowbridge?
It’s also Espãna in Spanish......I just call it Spain. Reminds me of a Geordie being interviewed after Newcastle thrashed Man U, “And what did you think of Felleeep Albear’s goal?” .....”We call him Philip Albert man!”
Who are we to tell someone how to pronounce their own name?
And the reverse, Deutschland is Germany to us etc. Pronounce the name in your own language I reckon.
So Terry Henry was the correct way all along 🙂
For once I agree, his name is Jesus!
Same here. Never thought I would concur with this forum's premier rotter on any subject.
I think I need to lie down.
That's the problem . He's trying to say hay sues and he just ends up sounding like a cock
What a sad and pathetic thread.
What is so wrong about trying to pronounce a person's name the way they pronounce it themselves? If your name was Dafydd, would you be OK with English people calling you Daffid?
Put a sock in it sonny , it's just laughable to hear these bbc commentators make clowns of themselves
In Spanish it’s Hay-zeus
In Portuguese it’s Jay-zeus
We're quite an insular lot and not that receptive to using foreign pronunciations, possibly for fear of sounding pretentious. I know it took me a while to get used to saying A(y)ax Amsterdam as it is correctly spoken and not Ajax as in the cleaning product. Every day's a school day Sludge.
Get over it big boy.
I think a little word in these commentators shell likes would help make them sound less like cocks
Surely someone has said to these blokes they are pronouncing these names wrong
It's like someone saying klanelli , you helping them to say it properly then them not bothering and saying klanelli
Haven’t you just killed your own argument?
Worst of the lot ?? Has to be the footballer formerly know as 'Trent Alexander-Arnold', now being just 'Trent'.
No, it’s Terrence, you silly Billy….erm William
No because these commentators are giving it the big listen to me and saying it wrongly
If they were told how to say it properly and did that it wouldn't grate on the ear
Considering Sludge's comments regarding the Welsh language, I imagine he'd want to be called Dave
Shouldn't that be stupid dicks?
On BBC Wales last week, the reporter was from 'Porthcaaawwwwl'.
