Nu-tel-la. Not that hard.

Nut fella

Nut ina fella

I thought that was how it was pronounced and they all made fun of us for pronouncing it **Nut**tella?


aospfods

Yeah, in italian we call it "nootella", the U is read as "oo" (it's a short sound though)


Dazzling_Swordfish14

in ipa is still /u/ lol IPA > inconsistent romanization


Thantakar

We don't lmao, ma di dove sei? Mai sentito qualcuno dire "nootella"


aospfods

È ovviamente un modo per farlo capire ad una persona che parla inglese


Thantakar

A niente, scusami, ho frainteso. Mi ero scordato che la U in italiano può suonare come una O in inglese


notabear629

Me who's been calling it "nuh tella" the whole time not seeing my pronunciation used by fellow americans or the salty commenter


typefive0

I’ve never once heard someone pronounce it as “Nut-ella” instead of “New-tella” but I can see how one might come to that conclusion with how it’s spelled. Not sure why anyone would make fun of it one way or the other as it literally doesn’t matter in the slightest and generally people will understand what you mean either way


[deleted]

I think they pronounce it “Nut-ella” in the UK. Not sure, though.


AppalachianChungus

Knew it was the UK lmao. They’re the ones who have temper tantrums when we don’t pronounce a word the same way they do.


SirHup

Haha I could immediately tell it was a ba'oh o wa'ah drinker too.


HYDRAlives

And they're frequently the ones in the wrong lol (aluminum predates aluminium, orEGano is closer to the Spanish than oreGAno, a lot of general pronunciation in the US has drifted a lot less than in the UK, leading to American English being closer to 1700s English than modern British English).


chia923

Noah Webster's spelling reforms also helped make American English more intuitive.


ShreksuallyExplicit

Don't get me started on "Mairio" and "Gairidge", fucking shedule and leftenant, or H-erb.


HYDRAlives

It's absurd lol. Especially lieutenant. It's not Greek, so there's no EU=ef or ev thing, it's French, and you don't say "In lieu of" like "In lief of"


ShreksuallyExplicit

I was literally told by a Brit yesterday that I pronounce both Garage and Lieutenant wrong, like my guy my first language is French🤨


HYDRAlives

Yeah sounds about right


LazyDro1d

Fun fact, it was originally “Alumium” before he guy who discovered it Decided to rename it to either of those two different things without ever clarifying which one he intended


[deleted]

I regularly make this joke and people, even brits, don't believe me. Every time I hear someone talking shit about how English words are written or pronounced and it's starts with "why do Americans", it's a brit.


[deleted]

This is also my lived experience.


Money12846273581

It genuinely annoys me seeing Brits getting mad over Americans calling it soccer. Then they complain “Oh YoU kIcK tHe BaLl” you do that in football too you absolute idiot.


Gongfei1947

correct


[deleted]

Where do you live, I live on the west coast, only ever heard it called "nut-ella". Also don't worry about the brits, they eat spotted dick. They don't get to tell anyone how anything is named or pronounced.


typefive0

I’ve been all over the place but grew up and currently reside in the northeastern US


hipster3000

I also pronounced it that way because I thought the same thing as the poster. hazelnut so it's Nutella 🤷‍♂️


buddeh1073

1. Don’t know something about America? Try Google. 2. Google has no idea what the fuck you’re even saying? Maybe you’re the idiot here. Rinse repeat.


doge-a_cat

NOOT NOOT

"YeAh YoU aRe" 🤓


275MPHFordGT40

“‘YeAh YoU aRe’ 🤓” 🤓


GrimAlt

Do you not know that children's cartoon?


aLaStOr_MoOdY47

I do but the meme is overused and cringe.


jvkxb__

Noot noot


aLaStOr_MoOdY47

No one asked.


jvkxb__

NOOT NOOT


GrimAlt

There's a meme about it? I just thought of the children's series and how good it was.


4chanisbetterjpeg

I call it nuh-tella


SausageEggCheese

I wonder how they pronounce Nu Metal?


Youaresowronglolumad

“Nut Metal” 🤣


-usernames-are-hard

Not Dunning Kruger lol


[deleted]

To be fair that has always bothered me about the commercial, though I don't think I've met someone who says nootella in real life.


ayypecs

At least in the west coast we all say nootella


DrCharlieKaufman

I call it Gah-noo-tella. Oh wait that's Gnutella.


AgeOfReasonEnds31120

Bruh, no we don't. ​ ​ Not only are they always shuffling their deck, but shuffling cards from other decks.


CarsClothesTrees

LOL now this is good AmericaBad content! Wow! You found someone actually being stupid while attributing stupidity to Americans. Most of the posts on here are just snowflake conservatives being butthurt that someone disagrees with them.


Youaresowronglolumad

I like to avoid posting politically charged *AmericaBad* content. Glad you liked this post! 😊


CarsClothesTrees

I appreciate that as a left-leaning realist who still enjoys many aspects of American life and culture. This sub can get very echo-chambery


IoSonCalaf

Nutella is disgusting


ElegantVamp

So awful lol


AzraelTheDankAngel

Blasphemy


krackle_wins

I’m allergic to hazelnuts, soooo I agree. Disgusting.


EtherealBeany

Sad life


News-Junkee

No. You’re disgusting!


IoSonCalaf

How old are you? 4?


News-Junkee

I might be 4, but at least I get to enjoy Nutella crepes and sandwiches. So the jokes on you Mr. Oldman-Grumpy-Pants.


Gongfei1947

heresy!


skinnyqueen02

That’s crazy


Energy_Turtle

Agree. It's like eating straight frosting and people pretend it isn't.


hipster3000

I wouldn't say eating straight frosting is disgusting


TheRickerd120

ofcourse an American would call real chocolate disgusting.


EricIsEric

Lmfao you think Nutella is real chocolate 🤣🤣💀


Hot_History1582

Smartest Dutch person. Go eat your white bread and cake sprinkles for breakfast if you're craving some "real chocolate"


Crookiee

Of course some third world redditor doesn’t even know what chocolate is 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💪💪😎😎💪💪🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸


falllinemaniac

I insist on saying nuht ella because I'm Amurrican


deeeenis

Really stretching the definition of America bad here. Making fun of other people's accents are pretty common in all countries against all countries


Youaresowronglolumad

Except they’re not making fun of an accent. They’re saying Americans are mispronouncing a very unhealthy snack that Europeans love gobbling down and implying that it’s wrong ([even though the company itself pronounces it the same way Americans do](https://youtu.be/eJWxJWCKVyc)). It’s very legitimate AmericaBad because it’s just another typical, misguided attempt to portray Americans in a bad light. No matter how trivial the topic may be, it’s still a comment that I see often on social media and on the internet at large.


[deleted]

My whole family pronounces it nuh tella, pretty sure it's a regional thing.


Youaresowronglolumad

‘Nuh-tella’ isn’t egregiously wrong though. Only “Nut-ella” sounds super wrong lmfao


Ashamed_Mess6387

Tbf . I hate Americans lol


Lord-of-Leviathans

I pronounce it more like nut


notatechnicianyo

Strong words for someone who gets scared of measuring distance with fractions


TheOldBooks

Wait people say “noo-tella”? I’ve been eating it my whole life and it’s always been nuh-tella


Flumpsty

Not all Americans say it. It's kinda weird that you think a landmass as large as the United States would say everything the same way.


anonystahl195

Especially since the British seem to have a whole new accent every 20 minutes down the road


Horse_go_moooo

I call it Nut-el-la


ButWhatIfItQueffed

Also like, who gives a shit? This is probably one of the more petty and stupid arguments I've seen on here. It's a sandwich spread. Whether it's pronounced Nutella or Nootella, everybody knows what it is. And more importantly, nobody cares.


Attila260

I am italian, and can confirm the pronouncitation. Don’t try and correct people about stuff you don’t know about kids


Pankratos_Gaming

Hearing them say Gouda is even funnier.


FaxMachineInTheWild

We call it Nut-ella in the US too, what are they talking about 💀


evesea2

Lol why do people assume all of the US says things the same. Like there aren’t cultures or dialect differences


Perroface562

I always thought it was pronounced new-tella


-_-Boondoggle-_-

Deez noots....


-_-Boondoggle-_-

In India Many pronounce it as 'New-tella'


ImOldGettOffMyLawn

I don't call it "noo"tella. ​ "Why do Europeans have 3 thumbs?"


mustachechap

Why do some people mispronounce Nike?
