how do South Koreans say "Hyundai?"

[hjr]

Back a few years ago, when the Equus(HCD7?) was in Chicago in 2002, there was a clip on hyundaiusa.com showing the unveiling and a 15 minute speech beforehand, froma South Kroean rep of Hyundai.

It sounded like he called it either"She-yoon'day' or He-yoon-day", then Mr finbarr o'neill took the stage and called it Hun-day, like most Americans do.


Anyone?

Correct, except that the "day" part is actually pronounced "die", and the accent is on the second syllable.

"hee-OON-die"
