- nirvdrum 2y agoA key difference, to me at least, is that it's not a made up word (well, no more than any other established word). Ambiguity over its pronunciation comes from lack of familiarity with the source language. That's fine, we all need to learn, but to insist the native speaker is pronouncing it wrong seems a bit odd to me.
