As some of know, meat and cheese is how I make my living. Next time you have gouda say, “How-duh.” Stop saying gooda, gowda, just get rid of the “g” all together. I’m only talking to those speaking with a US accent! Don’t worry about the fricative because it’ll sound like you’re about to hock a loogie.

My friends are going to think I’m nuts if I pronounce it how-duh.

Nah, this is fine. They’ll think you’re nuts if you actually do the fricative.

Some words are just too far gone. Gouda is one of them.

Sure, I can do that. Can we get people pronounce hummus correctly while we are at it? It’s hoo-moos, not humm-us. To be really pedantic it should start with the fricative as well.

Not as much as frigorific. Frig is pronounced as in ‘fridge’ but looks like you’d pronounce it fri-g.

Frigorific, causing or producing cold.

I pronounce it with the fricative.

I lived in the south of Holland for a while in a town called Veghel which is near Gemert.

Van Gogh is another one I like.

Look, I’m all about value, okay? If there’s a G, I’m not letting it go to waste. I’m pronouncing that motherfucker.

Well, I’ll try, and then the person behind the counter will say, “What?” and I’ll say it again, and that person will say “What?” again, and then I’ll say “Goo Dah,” and then I’ll get my cheese.

Hey, you know what city my father was born in? “Pai[r]-Ee.” You’re supposed to kinda gargle that “[r]”, too.
