You know those small nuance meaningless things that piss you off to no end? I have a million of them. But for tonight, it's the pronunciation of Qatar.
It is not, no matter the TV shows that taught you, pronounced "cutter", like some teenaged girl with self image issues.
It's CUTT-ar.
At 2:27 the FP minister pronounces it himself.
It's much like most 2 syllable words in Arabic. The emphasis is on the 1st. BAGhdad, MOsul, ERbil, KATman-fvckin-du.
Like our childhood heroes said, knowing is half the battle.
Go-Joe
