I've been a member on this forum for three years and nine months and I still can't speak a single word of Korean. (Other than Hyundai).
Most people in the UK say High - yun - dieBut on UK TV the advert pronounces it Hun - day.

Old Hyundai ads pronounced it that way but you obviously haven't been taking too much notice of the latest model ads.... If you had, you would have noticed they don't actually say "Hyundai" at all....just the name of the particular model.....
Happy to stand corrected on that sort of "ad" but, like I said previously, if you watch any of the "latest model" ads they never mention Hyundai....
I think if you pronounce the 'y' as a yuh, as in yesterday then it sounds pretty close. Not as a hi or a he.
You cannot tickle yourself.
Chickens don't have teeth.

So chicken with teeth are rare
