We call minced meat (“ground beef” in the Americas, a hamburger, burger, or burger patty when it’s shaped into a flat circle.
It’s not uncommon for us to call a circle of ground beef a “burger” even if it’s sans-bun.

Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 5 months agoAlways feels weird to me that Yanks call weiners hot dogs even though the whole thing with the bun is a hot dog. Would feel like calling minced meat hamburger meat or something hah

Worse still is the pronunciation of “bologna”. How. Just how. None of you seppos have the right to tell me about how I pronounce “herbs” or “pecans”. Then again, our pronunciation of “lieutenant” is messed up.

The “g” isn’t silent. the “gn” in Italian (and French) is pronounced like a “n” with a tilde (~, e.g “ñ”) in Spanish.
- bologna = bo lo nya
- gnocchi = nyo ki
- cognac = co nyak
- jalapeño = ha la pe nyo
