Hun-dai (approximately)
Sequel

Mostly I was just joking around though, pronounce stuff however you want. I'm sure I mispronounce plenty of stuff. Ultimately if people understand each other, that's good enough

    ๐Ÿ˜‰

    I usually pronounce Volkswagen as "Vee-Double-You"

    I say actually say Hyundai just like you around normies, but my bff and I have an In-joke where we call them "Hyun-uh-Die" because one time when she was on the phone with someone from the Insurance company, they corrected her pronunciation to that.

    I actually love to mispronounce things on purpose, it might be why I chose "Jif" as my little hill to die on lol.

    I sometimes do too lol. I lived in Germany for a while. So if we are working on a project together and get along well you might here me pronounce a tool like it's literally a German word (i.e. "knife" -> "kuh-NEE-fuh" lol)
