Title: Inside in the Bugari Factory
Post by: Adam-T on August 18, 2012, 12:29:17 PM

In english too ! .... We`ve seen Pigini and Polverini , here`s Bugari (I was amazed to hear it`s pronounced Boogery or Buuggery rather than "Boojscharie" as you`d expect )

Thanks !! . I knew G before N was silent and how to pronounce a lot of others including Pigini (which is more fun to pronounce wrongly to allow all kinds of Piglet, Babe, Mochyn Bach etc jokes) but didn`t know it followed a set pattern ! .

Nice video, thanks. The commentator pronounces Bugari in a very strange fashion - I wonder where he's from.  :-\
