I’ve heard Americans pronounce it La cRoy and I refuse to accept that

Apparently that exact pronunciation is on their website.

It’s American so it’s not surprising they say the name wrong

Like Guy Fieri

So you're saying it should actually be pronounced "La Croiks"?

The way it’s spelt

La cwa? La craw? Somewhere between those two

La Cr(rrr added rolling r for bonus)wa

[–] TimewornTraveler@lemm.ee 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)
