I'm talking about the op, not jabata....



Well jabata and the op are the same, they both lie on people to prove that they are deviants....
Hmmmmm.... I don't think so but, Allahu-l-musta'n.

AbdelKabir:
Plus the op ascribed lies to jabata and Alaro.....even tho I have BIG ISSUES with the two individuals I mentioned, I won't authenticate a lie against them.....I read their aqeedah on their website and i noticed they reference "Abu Muhammad Al-maqdisi"(note, not the classical hanbali scholar, Abu Muhammad Abdul-Ghani al-Maqdisi) a takfeeri, who is not knowledgeable, in fact here is what shaykh muqbil rahimahullaah got to say about this jaahili al-Maqdisi....by


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXv9NGDefeo

So if they referenced this man, what do you expect?
Ustaz JABATA never make reference to abu Muhammad al-maqdisi ooo.. Lailai,abadan.

THE RIGHT PRONUNCIATION OF FASHION BRAND NAMES.

September 7, 2016
Most designers behind high-end fashion brands are mainly from non-English speaking countries. These designers usually tend to use their actual birth name for their fashion brands. When it comes to the pronunciation of these brand names, a lot of people (myself inclusive) barely get it right.

From Dolce and Gabbana (D&G) to Louis Vuitton, fashion brand names get mispronounced everyday majorly as a result of ignorance. You do not have to wait until you are able to afford a particular brand before knowing how it should be correctly pronounced. Remember the old saying “No knowledge is a waste“.

Hence, in order to avoid public embarrasment, I have researched and put together the proper pronounciation of common fashion brand names from around the world for my lovely readers.



1. Brand name: NIKE


Photo via: google

Wrong pronunciation: nee-keh (As though it is the second part of the yoruba name from south-Western Nigeria “Adenike” lol).

Proper pronunciation : Nai-kee




2. Brand name: MOSCHINO


Photo via: couturepictures.com


Wrong pronunciation: must-chi-nose ( Aba boys, how market? Lol)
Right pronunciation: Mos-key-no




3. Brand name: CHANEL


Photo via: http://www.bragmybag.com

Wrong pronunciation: channel
Right pronunciation: sha’nel




4. Brand name: GIUSEPPE ZANOTTI


Photo via: goggle



Wrong pronounciation: jew-sep-say zah-note-tee
Right pronunciation: joo-ZEPP-ee zan-OTT-ee




5. Brand name: HERMES


Photo via: fancy.com


Wrong pronunciation: hair-miss
Right pronunciation: AIR-mez




6. Brand name: CALVIN KLEIN


Photo via: pinterest



Wrong pronunciation: car-vin klin / kelvin- klin

Right pronunciation: Cael-Win Kla-In


7. Brand name: GIVENCHY


Photo via: http://www.thebay.com



Wrong pronunciation: Ji-ven-chi / giving-chi

Right pronunciation: jhee-VON-shee


8. Brand name: “DEOLA” by Nigerian fashion designer Deola Sagoe.


Photo via: Nairaland.com
Wrong pronunciation: Dee-or-lah Sir-go / Dee-lah sir-go

Right pronunciation: DAY-or-la Say-go


9. Brand name: YVES SAINT LAURENT


Photo via: polyvore.com


Wrong pronunciation: Yes-saint-law-rent / why-Vis-sent-law-rent

Right pronunciation: eve san lore-ONN


10. Brand name: CHRISTIAN LOUBOUTIN


Photo via: google



Wrong pronunciation: kris-tian loo-boo-tin

Right pronunciation: Chris-tee-AHHn loo-boo-TAAan


11. Brand name: MANOLO BLAHNIK


Photo via: pinterest



Wrong pronunciation: Mar-no-lo bla-nick

Right pronunciation: mahn-OLL-oh BLAAHH-nick


12. Brand name: DOLCE AND GABBANA


Photo via: google



Wrong pronunciation: doll-chi and gah-banner / doll-see and gah-banner

Right pronunciation: dol-chey and gab-ana



13. Brand name: LOUIS VUITTON


Photo via: mylouisvuittonbag.com


Wrong pronunciation: loo-wis voo-ton

Right pronunciation: Loo-ee vee-tonn



14. Brand name: BVLGARI





Wrong pronunciation: B-vee-L- garri / ball-gay-ree

Right pronunciation: Bull-gari


15. Brand name: BALMAIN


Photo via: ikrix.com


Wrong pronunciation: ball-main

Right pronunciation: bahl-mahhhhn
