We’ve all been there at least once: You’re at a nice restaurant and you know exactly what you want, but you’re nervously waiting your turn to tell the server your order because… you have no idea how to pronounce the name of the dish. When they get to you, you either laugh your way through your attempt at saying it out loud, or you end up helplessly pointing to the option to try to spare yourself any more embarrassment. There are some food names that basically everyone is pronouncing all wrong.
You can just google the name of the food or the dish, and find out the proper way to say it out loud! Practice a few times at home when you’re alone, and then pat yourself on the back for a job well done. And hey, don’t be too hard on yourself: food names come from all over the world, and some can be really tricky to say if you aren’t familiar with that particular language. It happens to the best of us!
Below is a list of some of the most commonly mispronounced words out there, with the way you should actually be saying them. Knowing how to say these perfectly is the most simple way to impress your friends, and anyone you’re eating with.
