I Like The Other Guy Better! U Know Onttamontapioa

[ArturoStojanoff]

in spanish you prounounce it "Oo-keh-leh-leh" or "Oo-kay-lay-lay" Or something in between.

[timeparadox888]

Um, people, this is the English pronunciation, not the Hawaiian pronunciation. Look it up in the dictionary, this is correct.

[chrisdene]

just say JULIA NUNES

[Portal2Rulez]

I pronounce it oo-koo-lee-lee :3

[adayinasia]

Wrong!

[FaShizzleMaNizzle1]

Honestly this channel wouldn't be half bad if patrick stewart took over this guy he sounds like a pubescent teenager who's voice is going to break and his balls are gonna drop any minute

[USDMcat]

This is the most retarded channel in the entirety of Youtube

[cutekittycathatgirl]

[kryomaniac]

[PlXEL8]

Oh I always said Ooo-kill-ay-ay

[wolfang111]

You kill Aylee

[mostdopeJordan]

You-Kul-Ay-Lee

[Plutoisaplanet1]

Yup this video is the worst fail I've ever seen. I was trying to show to my friends that it's not You-kuh-lay-lee, so I looked up the proper way to say ukulele, and this video came up. Luckily this comment section was here to agree with what I said!

[Mekose]

Ukulele no good.

[xXr4ndomXx]

Why do Americans keep pronouncing it ook-a-lay-lee. Words in the Englsh language arent always pronounced how they are spelt. Its Ewe-ka-lay-lee, ewe as in the female sheep.

[pRiMeValNeRd]

Matthew Morrisn likes to pronounce it:

Ook-A-Lay-Lee

[Patasup]

i always pronouced it ew-ku-le-le

[Ukuleletuga]

Em português muito carinhosamente pronuncio: O CÚ LÉLÉ

[AlwaysYou95]

He is right.

There is "you kuh lay lay" and "you kuh lay lee"

[K3fka7317]

You kuh lay lay

[dandeadly3]

I disliked this video purely because there are too many vowles in that word. More so than marrige.

[linkerjuax]

[twgoldwood]

[andagii]

@twgoldwood What is your point...?

[mannyspearss2]

อูกูเลเล่ นะไอ้เจ้ากีตาร์จิ๋วเนี่ย -*-

[Arto572]

SO YOU CAN SUCK ON MY UKULELE

[MsHarryFreakinPotter]

the hawaiian pronunciation is: oo koo leh leh, and since hawaii is in america, i think that counts as an american pronunciation.

[MusicalEutopia]

@MsHarryFreakinPotter But not a standard American pronunciation.

[TripHazard808]

this guys needs to work of his hawaiian, thats right, atleast the "white" or Hoale way of saying it. thats the second hawaiian word he has done this way, he doesnt say it the way it would be pronounced in hawaii

[yurlittlepianist]

OH HAAAAAAAIL NO

[Quack4Zac]

It's traditionally "oo-koo-lele"

[Flaargleberry]

uh-kuh-leel

[VodkaSnowcone]

i know its "you-ka-ley-ley" but id rather say "ookooleelee" cos its sounds fun :)

[iSpurtz]

-_- People should not do this if they can't pronounce correctly.

[anythingnew]

Yu-kah-lell-lee

[SAMOENDD]

ITZ OOH-KOOH-LEH-LEH IN THE ISLAND WAYS

[Akhekhu65]

Everyone has a different pronouncement for it.

[smaginn]

I'm pretty sure it is yoo-koo-LEH-lee not yoo-koo-LAY-lee, but whatever.

[08Layne1]

It's actually.. Oooh-Koo-Lay-Lay  Instead of You-koo-lay-lee

[08Layne1]

It's actually.. Oooh-Koo-Lay-Lay Instead of You-koo-lay-lee

[averonicacc29]

this is not right! it's u-keh-leh-leh.

not you-kay-ley-lee

[WataAtaCrackah]

@averonicacc29 no it's: OO-koo-leh-leh

[averonicacc29]

@WataAtaCrackah lol, but with "u" I was hoping that phonetically it would make sense to people that it is "oo". I wasn't trying to make it sound like "uh" "uf" you know? :D

[WataAtaCrackah]

@averonicacc29 oh actually I was correcting the "keh" to "koo" part XD

[averonicacc29]

@WataAtaCrackah OH DANG! you're totally right! my bad :DD got to excited lol
