Why does he keep pronouncing the J in Arjen, its annoying

Well you're supposed to pronounce the J, I speak Dutch. Judgying by how English commentators massacre our names, Kevin De Broynuh or even De Broony I'm guessing they're pronouncing it wrong though.

According to NBC commentators, BPL had the players pronounce their name on videotape so commentators know how names should be pronounce. Think it was brought up when discussing how to say Santi Cazorla name.

Bro I'm completely 100% feel you man. English speakers and Anglo saxons massacre names andcant tell the difference between Dutch and German or Portuguese and Spanish.

Just like you guys, in Portuguese, we pronounce our J's!!! God Damnit!! Every time I hear José (Hose) Mourinho I cringe.

Also the way that pronounce Gomes, Lopes, Nunes, Soares, Sanches drives me NUTSSSSSS. They completely prounounce it in Spanish and I get so pissed. It's such an easy mistake to correct to, for example: if a Portuguese person last name is Lopes or Gomes, it's not pronounced (LO-PEZ or GO-MEZ), it's pronounced like it would read in English

For the record, I quickly recorded how his name is actually pronounced in our language, along with Kevin De Bruyne since commentators struggle with him a lot too.

Yup RM needs to drop the hammer

 

[Verde Shuttles]

Benz's final touch has been complete garbage today

 

[Trey Bantz]

Coupé It wait.

You can't tell me they pronounce Gomes in Portugal the same way American commentators pronounce it when they're referring to Johnny Gomes, because that's how it reads in English.

 

[jape]

watching leicester just hoof the ball up the field is exhausting and disgusting.

 

[sfc415]

Trey Bantz Gomes would be pronounced like Gomsh in European Portuguese and like Go-mes in Brazilian Portuguese

 

[illvine]
