It was amazing!! All through the Vikings/Saints game the announcers and everyone else mispronounced Brett Favre’s name. They continued to pronounce his name as though it was F-A-R-V-E. It isn’t. It is pronounced Fáv. The ‘r’ is not pronounced, and the “a” is pronounced as the “a” in father. This was pointed out in an interview with Brett’s father.
This is not advanced English, this is grade school stuff. I probably learned this in the third grade. How is it that so many people get it wrong all the time? Aren’t there any educated people in the sports industry? Do most of the fans follow the ignorant sportscasters blindly?
Geez. No wonder we are considered poorly educated compared to many other countries.
