Vicente Rodríguez: the correct pronunciation

[Mestalla]

As I have seen that people in twitter is still arguing about different pronunciations, i'm posting this audio links from radio programs. You can hear also how to pronounce 'puñal' and 'benicalap'.

BTW, the last link is a goal from May 2004 against Sevilla. That goal made Valencia the champion of la Liga that year.

Hi

Thanks for your post, I had assumed it would be pronounced 'vee thane tay'

Are you a Valencia supporter or what is your point of view as would be interested to hear and to be corrected.

Best

 

[goodoldsussexbythesea]

I just say 'Vih-sen-tay'

 

[Kalimantan Gull]

ok, I'm saying Vee-chen-tay. Damn it I still haven't worked out Vincelot; Poyet or Poyay and now this...

 

[looney]

Vinny.

 

[Poyetry In Motion]

Arsenal had the Invincibles..
..We're the Unpronouncables

Bi-then-tay
Vin-say-lo
Poy-et

 

[theonesmith]

Bi-then-tay
Vin-say-lo
Poy-et

I thought Vincelot was pronounced van-sah-lo?

 

[theonesmith]

Bi-then-tay
Vin-say-lo
Poy-et

I thought Vincelot was pronounced van-sah-lo?

 

[Life After Bobby]

Bi-then-tay
Vin-say-lo
Poy-et

Isn't it more like Po-shet (with the Po pronounced the same way it is in Poyay and Poyet, so probably Poi). And failing that, Poyet. But never Poyay.

 

[ArcticBlue]

You say Bi then tay
I say Vi chen tay
Lets call the whole thing off!

 

[Kalimantan Gull]

Bi-then-tay
Vin-say-lo
Poy-et

OK thanks. I was still rhyming Vincelot with Winalot and you need to have a word with all the people who sing 'Gus Poyay my lord'

Can a British person really pronounce Vicente; 'Bi-then-tay' - I reckon that first syllable is one of those that we can't do

 

[ees complicated no?]

Be-then-tay for me

The whole 'B' thing is rather odd.
If V is pronounced B then does the Barcelona team contain Bictor Baldes and David Billa, and do they play aginst Balencia and Billareal?

 

[Biscuit]

Well I'll be calling him VINCENT.

Bloody johnny foreigners, coming over here making us all speak funny.

I used to have a work colleague from Pamplona. She called our boss 'Debbid' (for David).

So it's Dabid Beeya, against Balenthia and Beeya-ray-al.

VINCENT RODGERS, takes the ball down well, spreads it right to IAN CALDERGON.

Does "poy-et" sound similar to a swear word in Spanish? I got a few laughs when mentioning the word in Marbella recently?!
