Hola a todos:

En inglés británico he oído siempre bruschetta pronunciada más o menos así: /brʊˈsket.ə/. En inglés americano, creía que el sonido /k/ era /ʃ/ (como en she), pero he oído a un americano decirlo con /k/. Me gustaría confirmar que es así en inglés británico y preguntar si se dan las dos pronunciaciones en el americano.

Gracias.

 

The correct pronunciation is the /k/ sound. It is a commonly mispronounced word. It drives my Italian mother crazy!

 

Not all Americans pronounce it with the "sh." I'm from New York City, and many members of the large Italian-American community there pronounce it with the /k/. The influence of a large Italian-American population means you'll hear a lot of people saying it this way. But you also hear the "sh" a lot...it's the kind of thing that one would never correct and I would go so far as to say the "sh" is totally accepted in the U.S.

 

I've only ever heard it pronounced as "sh."

 

I used to say "brushetta" too, until I found out the correct way is "brusketta."

 

I've only heard bruschetta pronounced as sh, but I realize that the Italian combination sch should be pronounced sk.

 

Thank you very much, everyone.

So, I understand the Italian pronunciation is seen as the correct one but the most common pronunciation of bruchetta in AmE is /ʃ/.

And what about in BrE?
