Up until recently, I thought that the US national park was pronounced "yo-semite", as if it was some sort of ghetto-slang used for greeting a Jewish person.

Ahahhahhahahaaha that's actually amazing

There was an '80s cop show called Hill Street Blues that had a recurring latino character named Jesus. All I heard as a kid was "Hey, Zeus" so I thought his actual name was Zeus and everybody just said "hey" to him when addressing him.

I love this so much!

I thought Yosemite Sam had pretty much taught all English speakers the correct pronunciation. I remember my parents saying their Swedish relatives pronounced it "Yohsmeet."

[–] neidu2@feddit.nl 8 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

I have no idea who that is.

EDIT: Oh, that guy. And now I know his name.

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Non-native English speaker, young, or both?

[–] neidu2@feddit.nl 7 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

The former. Noggie, to be precise. Plus I didn't watch a whole lot of Bugs Bunny growing up either.

Thank you! Going to call my Brother In-Law that now...

[–] neidu2@feddit.nl 7 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Allegedly, it's a mildly offensive term, FYI.

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 8 points 3 months ago

That's what I'm going for!

[–] thrawn@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

I say it that way sometimes for fun. I live nearish so sometimes, when visitors hear me say if, they ask if that’s how it’s actually pronounced

are you Donald Trump by chance

[–] RatzChatsubo@lemm.ee 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Wait how do you phonetically say this?

[–] TheFlopster@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Yo - seh - mit - ee

[–] Schmuppes@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

You're not alone, brother.
