A GLOBALIZED WORLD MEANS THAT SOMETIMES, we’re going to come across company names that we just can’t pronounce. I pass a Santander Bank everyday, always thinking of it as “Sant-ANN-dur.” Then, last week, I heard an ad for the bank pronouncing it “Sahn-tahn-DAIR.”

Turns out, there are a lot of these brand names we just don’t ever get right. Like Ikea. Or Nutella. Or Volkswagen. Or Hoegaarden. Made By Oomph put together this infographic to set us straight on thirty of the international brands we get wrong the most.
