Actually, it's English Grammar rules. When surrounded by consanants, the "Y" makes an "eye" sound. It's not true in German, which is the way most people pronounce the brand. If I tried the German pronounciation, it would sound really bad. I'd ket kicked off YouTube. :)
It's ThyssenKrupp. (tiss-en-ckrup)

It's a new england thing. I can't pronounce it that way for some reason.
I just call them "tie-vans-kerp" anyway. :D

I looked it up in an English dictionary online. The English pronounciation IS "Tyson-krupp" as well.
