why is Zurich pronouced choorihi on japanese tv? - 09-20-2009, 05:09 AM
theres a zurich insurance advert on tv right now which pronounces zurich as choorihi in japanese.

so i'm wondering if it might be that the pronunciation was appropriated from a culture that doesnt pronounce zurich as zookrikh.

any ideas?
