Why can nobody ever pronounce it's name properly?
americans cant into anything other than american. if british english pronunciations are too hard for them, french is definitely overambitiousalso a lot of pokesloptubers mispronounce names on purpose to bait engagement so there might be a bit of that
>>59271090The name is anglicanized. French LL's are not silent in English. For example, French vanille (vah-nee-yuh) and famille (fah-mee-yuh) are vanilla and family in English.
>>59271149in your examples the spelling is changed, likely primarily to achieve the same or similiar ending syllable as the french that the LL facilitates, which isnt the case with vivillonalso, viv-ee-yon sounds nice than viv-ill-on
>>59271090No one cares enough to change it since it’s a fictional character.
>>59271090People just don't know better. There's far worse common pronunciation errors anyway.Although now I do wonder if "veeveeyuh" is actually the official pronunciation. Some of the official ones are actually retarded.
>>59271090How do you pronounce "papillon", first of all?
>>59271163>Although now I do wonder if "veeveeyuh" is actually the official pronunciation. Some of the official ones are actually retarded.It's rendered in Japanese as ビビヨン ("viviyon") so the French way is the intended pronunciation.

>>59271090 I don't care enough about it

>>59271204apparently you do, since you saw a thread about it and decided to reply
>>59271177Pa-pee-yon
>>59271090About 30% of the time when I click on a Minecraft video and they call it "Mojang" with a hard J, I just fucking close the video
>>59271090Why can’t the fr*nch fix their gutter language so that it actually makes sense
>>59272034French is wholly superior to the subbarbaric growls engl*sh is supposed to be
>>59271315>peeHehe PeeHehehehe
