Message: [QUOTE="Force, post: 2426792, member: 8099"] Mateo is a Tongan name not English and its pronounced "Mah-teh-or" not Mit-tay-oh like most commentators say. The kiwi commentator(Dale Husband) says it more correctly than the Ozzy ones just that you're not use to hearing it pronounced correctly.The Ozzy commentators pronounce most of the Polynesian names wrong....Zeb Taia's name is pronounced "Tyre" not Tay-er,Junior Sa'u name is pronounce "Sa-ooh" not Sow,Ben Te'o name is pronounce "Teh-or" not Tee-oh etc....its just that kiwis are used to hearing Polynesian names moreso than Ozzies but even kiwis can pronounce them wrong at times.I guess if one hasnt learnt to say them correctly then they'll pronounce them wrong.
