Comments by "" (@CYMotorsport) on "The Failed Logistics of Russia's Invasion of Ukraine" video.

14:48 you‘ve done this a few times this video so thought I’d opine given it’s relevant and IMO interesting, but the word you should be using here is “matériel” which is a near homophone and in the case of material you could say they are both nouns referring to things. But specifically military equipment when describing logistics of war should be called “matériel” which Carries a different pronunciation.

@NLTops I can’t help it haha I’m American but I guess after years covering formula 1 which the US cares very little about, little stuff like proper pronunciation of loan words matters to me. But I also have a big interest in military strategy and materiel is universally accepted and respected. Good example of Armchair Historian who you will never making this mistake.

@gnatdagnat yep sorry should have clarified that point good catch. The accent is even dropped sometimes in English in the states. It’s pronounced almost like there’s emphasis on that ELL, too
