pronunciation manual

what is this?! I was going to ask it in the Nutella thread but felt dumb - Americans say 'noo-tella' but I have always said 'nut-ella'; does this prove I'm actually right?

Kinder - it's a European product, right? I know in France they pronounce it the American way you mentioned, but everyone in the UK says 'nut-ella'. Same as we pronounce Nike to rhyme with 'pike'. We're just anti-intellectual that way.

This kind of reminds me of that SomethingAwful thread where they were going on about PONAPLS and HUT DUGS and MIT BOLS and it made me weep with laughter.

I tend to put the emphasis on a different syllable, but that otherwise sounds correct to me.
