Another good video on the channel , you are the main member of the channel , you have chemistry with anyone 😂😁

You speak so sweet German :)

You did really well Christina 👏

You sound so cute...

You did great. Believe me, not all Americans can pronounce it real

🇨🇵 what about us ?

🇬🇧 ditto

pretty good US representation

Christina is so cute haha

@@thiagom1054 agree!

Yes, I don't know what she is on about

We French pronunce Adidas just like our neighbor's Germans would say

I wouldn't be surprised if there were some very regional variations, German's pretty good at having those lol

@@leDespicable Nein nein nein nein

@@leDespicable Standard German does not have variations. Plus, there is only one right way to say it according to the people who make the shoes

Yes, my partner does the same

But they pronounce it when they try to speak French they are mostly silent in French too.

Wrong , I am American and my uncle's wife is German, and my whole family ask Aunt Irene , how to pronounced the German Brands right.

@@marydavis5234 tbh, I have to agreed with Miriam. Having lived in Germany all my live, I've yet to hear a single German person pronounce it a-DEE-das and not A(H)-dee-das (some people stress the first syllable more than others, though, but that Adi comes from the first name Adolf and the same stress/no stress on the first syllable happens there) unless it's an English conversation and someone just goes along with it. If they speak about that company in the news, it's never a-DEE-das. Now, that doesn't mean that I don't believe that your aunt says it like that but it really isn't a thing Germans commonly say (in my experience).

@@siene1518 On the other hand, the acronym GIF comes from Graphics Interchange Format, thus with a hard G. However the creator of the image format has said the acronym should be pronounced "JIF", i.e. with a soft J sound. Thus the owners of Adidas most likely are the ones to determine how to pronounce the brand name, regardless of how it was constructed. (Here in Sweden we also tend to say a-DEE-das, not A-dee-das nor a-dee-DAS).

@@anderszapac And I accept that JIF is the correct way, even though from my own understanding, I'd be more inclined towards GIF. Then again, I've never had to use JIF/GIF in spoken conversation, so I don't really mind being wrong. Anyway, just to make sure, I've checked several videos (opening of a flagship store in Berlin, skipped through a couple of interviews with adidas managers/CEOs, watched commercials published by adidas,etc) and found that all official German adidas sources pronounce it AH-dee-das or rather a(h)-dee-das since the a(h) usually is only slightly stressed. This follows the German rules of pronunciation and makes sense with the origin of the brand's name. I'd be surprised if the founder used a completely uncommon way of pronouncing it when his name is a fairly standard German name and I've found no indication that his name was pronounced differently than the standard way of we'd pronounce Adolf "Adi" Dassler. Unfortunately, I couldn't find original audio of Adi Dassler saying adidas but the current and former CEO both say a(h)-dee-das. When asked "Americans pronounce the brand name as ah-Dee-das. How do you feel about it?", the former CEO of adidas answered "I don't mind as long as they buy our shoes", implying that it's not the correct way but who cares. And that's basically what it is - not a big deal either way. I usually wouldn't even have been as invested in this to actually do that amount of research but after your comment, I was curious. But yeah, from a German POV, nothing indicates that the pronunciation should be anything other than AH-dee-das / ah-dee-das. Btw., I also never heard a-dee-DAS but at least that would make more sense than a-DEE-das because if you said the entire name of the founder, you'd say "a-dolf DASS-ler". I don't think that any German who had never heard the pronounciation of adidas would go for ah-dee-DAS but at least I get where it's coming from.

@@siene1518 👍

Wise words!

In germanic idioms, including english speakers eating final vowels and consonants, that's awful. And to do worst plus with particular slangs. Idiomatic terrorism.

Words of experience, wisdom and Hard job.

Sadly there are two exceptions... Like the "ie" you only pronounce the "i" And the silent "h" 🙃

It is spoken simply Walter. Before 1873 behind every ,t" a ,h' was written in german language, but not spoken. In 1873, and finaly 1901 the unnecessary ,h' after a ,t' was abandoned ( with exeption of Thron/ throne and nongerman words), so the ,th' appeares today mostly only in names of persons or companies.

@@brittakriep2938 yup, names are usually excluded, which means people tend to pronounce them how the would be pronounced with the current roles. Which doesn't help.

Das ist kein /th/ in Walther, sondern ein /t/ und ein /h/. Walt'her. Der Buchstabe (für den Lispellaut) ist irgendwann aus dem Englischen verschwunden (vielleicht durch den Buchdruck?) und in /t/h/ aufgelöst worden und sieht jetzt genauso aus wie t'h. Im Isländischen ist er noch vorhanden.

Das auslautende e käme bei Englischsprechern fast allein, wenn man sie am Anfang des Deutsch-Unterrichts etwa 5 Zeilen aus dem mittelenglischen Canterbury-Tales von G. Chaucer LAUT lesen lassen würde. Da gibt es dieses e noch, wenn man es nicht spricht, werden die Verse mehr als holprig.

Ich auch. Ich sage dass es ist eine schöne Sprache.

Yeah in German you can actually use ae to transcribe ä (e.g. when using a foreign keyboard setting or when writing your name for a foreign correspondent)

American here from Wisconsin. I was confused too, especially with the second word, thinking the "o" would be pronounced the same in both places. It makes more sense the way they pronounced it for it to have the umlaut on the first "o" (American keyboard, maybe? I'm not aware of how to do them on mine, tbh).

@@EddieReischl ö = oe, ä = ae and ü = ue if you arent on a german keyboard with umlauts. But im pretty sure apart from German speakers nobody would understand and be confused even more.

@@EddieReischl if you are on windows you can do alt codes to type an umlaut ie hold alt and type in the correct numbering (i usually use the number pad) and release alt
