How to pronounce ASUS.

trigger-happy · 27 Mar 2013 at 19:57

From my experience people actually pronounce ASUS incorrectly, especially on youtube. People pronounce it 'Ah-seus' which is completely wrong, it seems the mispronunciation of ASUS has made Jerry Shen (CEO of ASUS) butt-hurt and made an announcement on how to pronounce it properly.

The correct pronunciation is 'A-seuss' or 'Eh-sus'.

I WAS PRONOUNCING IT CORRECTLY ALL ALONG.

I HEARD PEOPLE SAYING "ASOOS" BUT I WAS ABOVE THOSE FOOLS.

NOW I NO LONGER HAVE TO FEEL IGNORANT.

I'm sure I heard the voice-over on a UK ad pronounce it Ahh-suce, it was probably for a PC World/Currys ad and got it wrong.

I've always assumed A-sus

As far as I can remember I believe that's pronounced Hop-Hog.

Also they pronounce Dacia the car company - dayseeya on top gear but in the advert its "Datcha".

I wonder who's in the right on that one. I'm guessing they wouldn't get it wrong in their own advert though...

I used to think it was kinda French and pronounce it Hawp-po-jay but apparently hop-hog is the correct way (or I was badly trolled).
