I speak french, I know how to say all three just typing them out phonetically is difficult

Bal (like ballet) En C (as in the letter C) aga

that's correct though. the name adidas comes from the founder's name Adolf Dassler. Adi short for Adolf. Das for Dassler.
How is Ralph Lauren pronounced, is it Lauren or Laren
>>11378461
I'm pretty sure it's pronounced "La ren" actually, not even memeing

I've heard it's pronounced both ways from a lot of different people, but I've always called it La ren
>>11376155

>>11376155
you have just listed the way americans prononce these names, in italy people call it Ver-sah-che, theres no chee, im guessing you got that from a rap song.
also ann demeulemeester, in belgian, is pronounced Aan demolle-meester
>>11378680
"Belgian" is not a language, you mean Dutch. And thats not how you pronounce it in Dutch.
This is how you pronounce both names in Dutch, coming from a Belgian.

It's supposed to be Hadi Slaymane
Heidi lives in LA and drags his twink ass out to lame poser shows all the time, and everyone calls him "hi-dee slimayne"
Anyone who doesn't is foreign or a pretentious cunt pretending to be. Enjoy your new name hidee you fucking runt.
Phonological drift is the price you pay for turning your birth name into a brand and entering it into the arena of mass culture. Welcome to linguistics
