Just how many different pronunciations doe this word have?
Its not pronounced randevou though, more like ron-day-voo
Rondevu
In French, words spelled with just "u" use a different sound than those spelled with "ou". "ou" (in la Métropole) is similar to the sound in English "do"/"too"/"sue"/"shoe" etc. while "u" is similar to Standard German long "ü"/"üh" like in "Lüge" but the German one is relatively reduced and isn't quite as frontal/strained/constricted.
'a' is not pronounced like 'en' in french
I think it could be spelled rendévou though
I'll grant you the 's' but it's still more or less pronounced like it's spelled. You can replace 'ou' with 'u' but it still sounds right with 'ou'.
English pronunciation in general is fucked up lol. You can never really tell how an 'e' or an 'a' will be voiced 🤣
E should definitely be an A or even an O. Shouldn't really have an E.
Rän-di-vü
TIL the pural for Rendezvous is Rendezvous. You just pronounce the S
And the 'S'. And to be fair, the 'OU' could have just been a 'U'. Also, the 'E' could have been an 'A'.
Randevu.
interestingly, thats what the turkish word for rendezvous is.
in turkish, words are written exactly as theyre pronounced at all times.
just a funny sidenote :3
Türk dilini sevmeye sebeplerin biri :)
Oh they are so smart, just like I don't know, most countries in the world that don't prefer imperial units and imperial era spelling
(The sarcasm is not directed to turkish though 😁)
How about Randaevoo ?
How about randeuwu?
Now even that sounds correct.
