      Maybach was bought by Mercedes-Benz when Mercedes were upper class cars in Germany, in the 90s Mercedes turned middle class for image reasons and had to come up with a Brand for their past millionair customers so in 2002 they startet to Put the Maybach Emblem on their Luxury cars instead of the Mercedes star but i think outside of central Europe Maybach is only used by Billionaires to pretend to understand what valuable cars are.

    In Swedish we usually just say "Mercedes" (pronounced like "Mersedes") rather than the whole "Mercedez Benz", or the shortened slang version. "Mersa". Older Swedes calls Volkswagen "Folkvagn" (which is a literal translation of Volkswagen to Swedish) and shorten it to "Folka" (especially when talking about those hippie 70:s ones, those are called "folkabuss".)
    Most people nowadays pronounce it like "Folksvagen".

    Maybach is / was a second brand of Mercedes Benz. It was positioned over the S Class. More luxury.
    In Germany Benz is used by people, who live near Karlsruhe and Mannheim. Because the Benz Werke were there. It's a region called Baden and is a part of Baden Württemberg. Near Stuttgart in Untertürkheim were the beginning of the Daimler Werke. So, near Stuttgart you can hear: "My car is a Daimler", when Mercedes Benz is meant. Mercedes was the daughter of a importer of Daimler cars in Czechia. His name was Jelinek. So, yes, Mercedes is called after a girl.

Germany, Austria, Luxemburg, Northern Italy, Northern France ,Switzerland, Netherlands, Belgium, Czech, parts of Poland were all kind of the same Central Europe dominated Sphere - and part of the Holy Roman Empire. Most 'Knight' armor industry/artisian were for instance in Southern Germany and Northern Italy. The main innovation route was between Belgium, North-West Germany, Netherlands to Southern Germany to Northern Italy (all btw. reigned by the the different Germanic dynasties who spread as tribes over most parts of Europe. Lombardy (= Longobard tribes = Long Beards), Burgundy (= Germanic Burgunder tribe), Normandy (North man, Nordmaenner - North Germanic/Viking tribe), France/Frankreich (just like Frankfurt, Frankenstein etc.) were the western part of the germanic Frankish Empire, Angeln and Sachsen (AngloSaxons). The Carolinian Renaissance was in Aachen under Karl dem Grossen (close to his real name, latinized Karolus Magnus - wrongly named 'Charlemagne'), the Northern Renaissance was in the Netherlands/Belgium/North-West parts of Germany and inspired also the similar independent cities in Northern Italy were also much influence came back to this route etc.

    Swedish girl is young/ younger generation, the way Swedes used to call Volkswagen is actually closer to the German prononciation. In Swedish it's Folkvagn so the German V is pronounced as an F and the W as a V hence the Swedish prononciation is or at least used to be before the "Americanization" started is very close to the original German.
    Same goes for Citroen, the Swedish way to pronounce it is "Citroäng", Swedish might be in the Germanic language but it also have a lot if borrowed French words and the way it used to be pronounced was like the French. Yet another good example of the younger generation picking up the "American" accent on words.

And why did she say we don't say the "k" in Volkswagen? I have never heard anyone, in any word, remove it like that.. And when she said Fiat, it sounded more like she said "Fjat", never heard it like that. And also Maserati, she pronounced that like it would be called "Maseratti". And this might be me that is "wrong", but I would say Lamborghini with a j-sound instead of a g-sound. Almost like Lamborjini with an extremely weak "r" or something. :)

      To be fair, with the evolution on the social media front I think more and more is "Americanized" as in English, that for sure is a generational change.
      Some wordings for sure is regional or dialectal like J or G in Lamborghini. You might also have a point in been living abroad for a while though I spent most of my adult life all around the world from 6 month periods to 5 years, I know it can change some prononciations for sure but if I'm specifically asked about a word and I got time to think about it I would always pick the "Swedish" way I learned it.

    I have heard some people say "volkswagen" pronounced with "v" in Swedish, but no one removes the k... I don't know why she said that we do because we don't. Most people however say "Volkswagen" with f or folkvagn. Sadly many younger people in Sweden don't know much about the German language or the fact that it's impossible to communicate in Swedish without using Low German/high German loanwords.

Ironically I was just wondering a few days ago so it’s great luck to find the answer here!

    The kittens love technology and cars, I liked the affectionate interaction of the models, and there is a lot of cultural mixture between the Germanic and Romance Languages, The Romance languages stress the consonants and sing the vowels, the Germanic languages do the opposite they sing the consonants and stress the vowels and the opposite, it is beautiful to hear, this phenomenon that brings the Germanic and romanic pronunciations of technological brands closer.

      same shortage tendency (which is like a globalized trend which started already back then) in Germany etc... you have just due to the history as German brand a bit more diversity: today usually Mercedes is used, sometimes Daimler, sometimes Benz in different contexts. The older generation has this diversity with naming more than the newer generation (which not just in this regard get a bit more homogenized (while in other fields more diverse)).

    In Afrikaans we say Volkswagen with the "o" pronounced flatter. We don't use the short "VW", but if we did it would be pronounced "veë weë". We also have a phonetic rhyme to differentiate between the letters "v" and "f" which is pronounced identical when used. Vissie veë and Kierietjie Ef (vis = fish, kierie = cane/walking stick), cuz the letter "f" looks like a cane.

    In England we say Fiat different, we actually say it more like "Fiöt" (best way for me to describe it is to use the Swedish vowel that makes the same sound we make). It's like the er sound from dinner or winner, Fiert kind of. There's many pronunciations of A in England depending on what letters it's next to, I've heard maybe a couple people say it how the American and the rest of the Europeans say it with the A, but most of us say it like "Fiöt"
    It's also the same with Pagani, for me it's more like "Pergarni/Pögani" instead of saying the A as an A. All this could just be my area but I've heard so many British accents say these the same as me so it might not be
    (for those who don't know Pagani is a hypercar brand, they are known in the car scene for the Zonda and the Huayra, I'm a car guy so I know them :))

    Actually, Mercedes is a Spanish word and name that means "mercies" or "favours". It is actually a short for "María de las mercedes", Mary of the Mercies or Merciful Mary (the Virgin Mary thus). The name comes from the Austro-Hungrian "CEO" of Daimler-Benz whose daughter bore this name for a reason unknown to me.
    I am a native speaker of both, Spanish and German and there isn't much difference in the spelling except for the C and the r. The former is a tad softer in Spanish, but the German C / Z is not an uncommon sound in Spanish either. The R is (may) be somewhat gutural, but that depends on the local accent you use in German, as there are a lot of different 'r' sounds. So, for Mercedes, there shouldn't be any surprises.

    I'm a Toyota guy through and throughout due to the perceived reliability, and I'd place 🇩🇪 Volkswagen second for the same reason, though my dream car is the 🇬🇧🇩🇪 MINI. 😅. In Finnish 🇫🇮, we have a humourous saying "Hajosiko Toyotasi" (I don't know any Japanese, but in this instance I would deliberately misspell it Hayosiko) which intends to emulate how the Japanese language sounds like with the Finnish meaning of the joke being "Did your unreliable 🇯🇵 Toyota break down?"

    • @DarklordZagarna
      @DarklordZagarna 3 месяца назад +1

      "Si" isn't really a Japanese syllable-- the standard syllable is "shi," and "si" is only really used for foreign words. But "haya" is the root form of the adjective "hayai," which means "fast," so that's kind of appropriate for a car. And "ko" often means "child," so you could make up a nonce word "hayashiko" meaning "fast ___ child" (there are probably 50 characters that can be read as "shi," so you could just pick whatever has the most appropriate meaning).

    • @anttirytkonen11

    Mercedes-Benz traces its origins to Karl Benz's first internal combustion engine in a car, seen in the Benz Patent Motorwagen - financed by Bertha Benz's dowry and patented in January 1886 - and Gottlieb Daimler and their engineer Wilhelm Maybach's conversion of a stagecoach, with the addition of a petrol engine, introduced later that year. The Mercedes automobile was first marketed in 1901 by Daimler Motoren Gesellschaft (DMG).
    Emil Jellinek-Mercedes, a Jewish-Austrian automobile entrepreneur who worked with DMG, registered the trademark in 1902, naming the 1901 Mercedes 35 hp after his daughter Mercedes Jellinek.
    4:28. Mercedes bought Maybach in 1960 and they still today own
