I hate that the majority of people in here speak American-English and can not always pronounce foreign brand names correctly that do not sound quite like they are spelled... 
It really doesn't matter, as long as you understand what they're trying to say.. I mean shoot, I say Ess-Ram instead of Sram.

Learn something new everyday ? I pronounce that as "Me-Shay", similar to Michelin tires ? But I could understand a strong "K" as in the name Michelangelo. Italians, go figure ?

I may be new, but I know forums arent a place for perfect spelling. If i wanted to learn grammatically correct statements I would enroll into an english class... (fml i have to soon anyway). We should all know what the idea of the statement phrase is anyway. Commonsense or no?
occasional quirks of the vernacular are tolerated, but presenting yourself as an uneducated oaf will lead people to treat you as one.
