We hate to break it to you, but you’ve been mispronouncing ‘Bangkok’ your entire life. The good news is the right pronunciation is just as much fun as the wrong one!
So when you see ‘Colombia’, you say ‘Co-LUM-bee-a’. Well, your life is a lie and that’s not how it’s pronounced. The good news is we’re here to drop some Orthoepy! That’s the science of pronunciation, for those of you who feel life’s too short to right click and search Google. The right way to say it is, ‘Co-LOHM-bee-a’. Don’t you feel like Shakira already? You’re welcome!
