Pet hate....

INDEED!!

Being from Eastern EU, I hate it, when Johny English murdering it blindly. Not even attempting to find out how it is to be pronounced.

ACROPOVIK, ACRAPOVIC, ACRO (as in Akro prop?), Yet it is so simple to actually take a moment and to actually read (not guess) the letters.
The name of the brand is most very likely, if not most definately (without looking it up), to be the last (family) name of the person who had started the brand. A bit like Petrovic(h), Michailovic(h), There is no "K" in any of those names.

Just shows, how lazy the English speaking nations are. Yet when other world nationals unawares, are making slightest of pronunciation/spelling mistakes, Johny English is right there to correct them and to take extensive piss session, because why not.

You were more Akropovič than Akrapovič.

Standard bike sounded better for me. The Decat was far too abusive to my ears.
But then again, I am not keen on that particular bike anyway, no matter how good o bad it sounds.

Yeah, but is that the American pronounciation? It was easier when they were called Skorpion...

Aha you are correct I shall spend the evening swallowing razor blades while repeating AkrApovič

I actually hesitate before saying it in the vid, subconciously girding my loins for the torrent of "you said it wrong" comments

I know, why couldn't they have just called it something like Scorpion or Arrow, rather than something that sounds suspiciously like a soviet era assault rifle ffs

Probably not a good idea. It'll just make it even more difficult for you to roll your arrss.
