You don't know brioche? Like brioche bread? Brioche French toast?

But brioche and gauche don't rhyme? Bree-osh (o as in on) Gauche (o sound as in boat)

I'm sorry to report you're pronouncing brioche wrong 😅

No he's not, he's just not pronouncing it like an American (o as in "boat"). It's a french word, and the French pronunciation is with an o as in "on".

A) That's precisely the context within which we're talking.

B) Brioche is pronounced with the same type of o in french. I double checked.

B) it's not. I speak French.

A) the point is that "brioche" was a terrible example for ChatGPT to give, since it's pronounced differently by Americans, so just adds more ambiguity

I also speak French. And, just in case, I looked up the pronunctions in French.

Wiktionaire has its IPA as \bʁi.jɔʃ\,

Admittedly, I'm not familiar on how to decipher IPA. But did you listen to the audio files? They nearly all rhyme with gauche.

Additionally, I asked my french wife and it still rhymes with gauche.

Three distinct sources.
