Lmao. But all of the restaurant puns work better when you pronounce it "Fuh" like it's supposed to be.

Hate to inform you that it is pretty racist to do that.

Also every pho restaurant is pretty damn adamant about letting you know that it's Vietnamese.

Regardless of you speaking English, you're still pronouncing those words incorrectly.

The pronunciations don't change just because you're a native English speaker.

Why would they be adamant about letting you know its Vietnamese

I've been to spanish food before and they don't tell me what country they're actually from

dunno why its any different with them

It's hilarious to me that you eat it often enough for this to be an issue yet you still can't say it right

If I were one of TC's friends I would just start mispronouncing random words all the time lol

The picture posted itt literally says "Vietnamese restaurant"

Also I'm guessing you're using "Spanish" as a blanket term here too.

If you actually want to say it correctly with the correct pronunciation, say "fuh" like you are asking a question. It is very easy since majority of the vietnamese language is one syllable. The hardest part about Vietnamese is the same as french, mispronouncing while not using the right accent makes it an entirely different word.

I have a friend that pronounces gyoza as goyza.
Pisses me off.

It's really not hard to out the bare minimum effort into pronouncing shit correctly.

The goofy pronunciation comes from the fact the Vietnamese use the Latin alphabet themselves. We use the spelling they use rather than spelling it so that we can pronounce it which leads to some spellings that leave basically anyone that speaks a European language scratching their head.

Turkish has the same issue.

When I was a kid, I had no idea why every American I met couldn't pronounce my last name correctly "Nguyen" until I realized that Americans don't have a sound of 'Ng" together unless it's a "-ing". I hate having to mispronounce my last name as "nuh-guy-in" anytime someone asks for my last name on phone or else they won't be able to spell it correctly or find it in their database if I say it correctly.
