How to Pronounce "Bugatti" in English
The French luxury car manufacturer, Bugatti, is often mispronounced. While it may seem like it should be pronounced like "bug-atti," it's actually quite different. Here's the correct way to say it:
Boo-gah-tee
Let's break it down:
- Boo: The first syllable is pronounced like the word "boo" in "boo-hoo."
- gah: The second syllable is pronounced like the "gah" in "garage."
- tee: The final syllable is pronounced like the word "tee" in "tee-time."
Here are some tips to help you remember:
- Focus on the "oo" sound: The first syllable is not a short "u" sound like in "bug." It's a long "oo" sound.
- Don't forget the "t" sound: The final syllable is not just "ee," it includes a soft "t" sound.
Practice saying it a few times:
Boo-gah-tee, Boo-gah-tee, Boo-gah-tee.
Now you can confidently pronounce the name of this iconic car brand!
