NoahBody 0 Posted April 3, 2012 So wanting to sound more educated that I am, how is "Hublot" pronounced?. Is it: Hew-blut Hue-blut Hew-blot Hue-blot Or am I completely off base here? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

myaz 3 Posted April 3, 2012 quote "you blow": very close. If you could say without the "y" sound, you're almost there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr Yan 8 Posted April 3, 2012 Yeah.... thats what i said ubloh ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gran 226 Posted April 3, 2012 Its different in different languages....its more like wHo-BLow..anyhow its does not sound good Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
myaz 3 Posted April 3, 2012 Yeah.... thats what i said ubloh ! Indeed "U" nailed it, except in the "U"S, when someone sees "u"rea, "u"topia, "u"vula, they're sometimes tempted to add a "y" sound in front of it. It was easier to point this out with the "you blow" example. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NoahBody 0 Posted April 3, 2012 You blow? You'd think they would've taken that into consideration when naming a company Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
myaz 3 Posted April 3, 2012 You blow? You'd think they would've taken that into consideration when naming a company or evoking the sound of a valsalva maneuver B) However, more egregious transgressions have occurred Check the spanish meanings of the following "moco" and "la puta" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
