So, here are the most important ones (mostly with native speakers):



Carnauba



Souverän



Klasse



Migliore



Werkstatt



Einszett



Tiefenpfleger



Gummipflege



Zuffenhausen



Glasur



Porsche



Pneu (Swissvax)



Menzerna

I have a Mac. What program do I use to open the .ogg files?

[imported_Bence]

No idea. The links are simply little play buttons on the site...

[CKSpeed]

Could someone write these out phonetically?

[AntonV]

You need to dl a plugin for ogg vorbis. Or dl winamp. Ogg vorbis files are my fav..... Never use mp3

[mariola]

Use Audacity for the Mac. It`s free! Audacity: Free Audio Editor and Recorder

OK, I`ve got to admit it, that`s pretty cool!!

[imported_Bence]

Just added Menzerna...

I have a Mac. What program do I use to open the .ogg files?

They work great with VLC, a very useful media player for the Mac (it also plays .wmv files and many others).





Thanks for posting these!

Just go to Forvo: the pronunciation guide. All the words in the world pronounced by native speakers and serch for the words manually. you then have a play button that uses the website`s built-in audio player.



Great topic Bence! :spot

Thanks Toni! I`m trying to make life easier for those who don`t know the exact pronunciation of these brands. We all have heard "strange versions".



BTW the links show directly to Forvo`s built-in player...
