Peugeot = Puge - o

Citroen = Si - trane

Renault = Reh - no



Citroen is the only one I'm not 100% sure on but I'm pretty sure that's right. The others I know are right.

I say it like I've heard while watching WRC:



poog-oh (g=that funny g/jsh sound)

sih-trone



And I don't know if I've ever heard Renault

in my head I just say ree-nault, but I know that's wrong.

That seems about right, a better phonetic spelling of citroen than mine too. Renault is pronounced "reno" this side of the world BTW, but that's not to say we're right , after all we pronounce Nissan as "niss-san" which I know is wrong but say it like that anyway - saves me having to explain what it means.

TEIN = Tay-EEN



Japanese E = American long A...Japanese I = American long E



5Zigen = Go ZHEE-gayn



Mugen = MOO-gayn



NISMO = Nees=mo, not NIS=mo



RE Amemaiya = ah-may-MAH-ee-uh



Zenki = ZAYN-kee, not ZEEN-kee



Kouki = koh-OO-kee









One question: How do you pronounce Panoz?

Is it PAH-nahz...PAY-nohz....peh-NOHZ....what?

PS: I know nobody cares, but Hyundai isn't pronounced HUN-day, regardless of what the commercials say. That's the bastardized american version.



Correcet pronounciation is this: hee-yoon-DIE



thank you.
