    People will complain about that but not look twice at “rendezvous”.

    I don’t think that I’ve ever heard anybody pronounce “chaise longue” correctly. It’s “shay long”.

      Actually (pronounced acktschually) it’s ‘shayz long’ The ‘s’ is usually only silent when it’s the last letter of the word.

      Shez Long

      It literally means long chair. Not lounge chair.

      Nobody pronounces “bruschetta” correctly; it’s “broo-SKET-ta”

        An Italian told me off through the TV set and I promised never to say “broo-SHET-ta” again.
