How do you say Frappe?
I ordered one of these at McDonalds today - OMG, so good!
I say fra-pay. But I saw a commercial today advertising a Frap maker - they said Frap like 10 times and that just sounds so wrong and a little stupid. But, maybe I'm wrong and stupid - maybe the McDonalds cashier is judging me for saying fra-pay (or maybe she was judging me for using a free coupon).
Re: How do you say Frappe?
I say fra-pay as well. (Fra like Jack not fray)
"Frap" sounds stoopid!!
It is most definitely a two-syllable word. There should be an accent on the e, indicating that it is pronounced "ay".
Maybe pronouncing it "Frap" is part of the whole post 9-11 anti-French thing (Freedom Frap?). Or maybe it's just part of McDonald's recent LAME anti-intellectual ("I don't know where Paraguay is!") campaign...kind of a "only snobs pronounce French words correctly" kind of deal?
The McD's commercials say "frap-pay," which is how I say it.
As for the commercial you saw, I'd think they were just shortening frappucino into frap.
the commercial I saw was for a Mr. Coffee machine http://www.mrcoffeecafefrappe.com/default.aspx but it just sounded so wrong the way they were saying it.
