  We call minced meat (“ground beef” in the Americas, a hamburger, burger, or burger patty when it’s shaped into a flat circle.

  It’s not uncommon for us to call a circle of ground beef a “burger” even if it’s sans-bun.

  Worse still is the pronunciation of “bologna”. How. Just how. None of you seppos have the right to tell me about how I pronounce “herbs” or “pecans”. Then again, our pronunciation of “lieutenant” is messed up.

      The “g” isn’t silent. the “gn” in Italian (and French) is pronounced like a “n” with a tilde (~, e.g “ñ”) in Spanish.

      • bologna = bo lo nya
      • gnocchi = nyo ki
      • cognac = co nyak
      • jalapeño = ha la pe nyo
