Did we get 'Shi-a-von' from yesterday? Instead of Skee-a-vo-nay (Schiavone)
|

By:

Alesandro Fire
(Falla) |

Feliziano Loppe

By:
But that is how you pronounce it - you don't say double ll in Spanish. So Fire would sound correct.
|
|
By:
Also, z in Spanish is pronounced like 'th' if at the end. So 'Lopeth' (whcch is what the comm is saying) also technically correct!
|
|
By:
Lopeth may be correct but it sound ridiculous in an English sentence
|
|
By:
Maybe but you can't knock a guy for correct pronunciation on an incorrect pronunciation thread!
|
|
By:
lol
ok |
|
By:
Well, if Alessandro Falla is correctly pronounced Mr. Fire on an English stream, then so be it.

Oh please  It's always this same guy too, what a knob. |

By:
yeah, he ALWAYS seems to comentate on the FERRAY matches
|

By:
I've complained about him before (to Betfair). I mean come on, there are two things above all that a commentator needs to have; good, clear, correct pronunciation and knowledge of the game - this guy has neither!!

Loved the Llodra Federer game at the Toronto, every time the commentator said the match name it sounded like a chinese version of Roger Federer.

The worst I have heard is safasova instead of safarova....I dont know exactly but I dont believe that r turns into s suddenly in any language but japanese or sth... Also being from eastern europe it very painful to hear russian names being pronounced like sha-ra-POVA not sha-RA-pova as it should be...
|
|
By:
Also I love how in russian servers advantage "bolshe" sound like bullsh1t in english...especially when server has come from 0-40 down and goes to advantage then it really is bullsh1t :p
|
|
By:
whoever came up with that word in russian must have been a trader who bet on breaks. |
|
By:
Maybe OT, but some comms say game when they talk of match and match when its game..
Some umpires when they should be saying 15 I hear 13 or 14. |
