according to the british "mirror" report on september 11, recently, a british netizen said that they seemed to have always pronounced the french word "croissant" incorrectly, which sparked a heated discussion on the internet.croissant is a flaky crescent-shaped delicacy that is widely loved by everyone because it is delicious whether it is eaten hot, with a lot of butter and jam, drizzled with chocolate, sprinkled with almonds, sandwiched with ham and cheese, or eaten directly. the british think it is the best gift france has given to the world besides the actress marion cotillard. but it turns out that many british people have been mispronouncing "croissant" for many years. some people read it as "cross-aunt" or "cross-son", which is wrong.on the social media platform, one netizen posed the question: "what is the foreign word that the british really like to try to pronounce accurately? i choose 'croissant'." others shared their troubles with pronunciation, with one person writing: "this feels like nails scratching on a blackboard. it's driving me crazy."
