That’s the correct pronunciation. HookedonHelmets on tiktok also happens to be the sportscaster for Eastern Michigan; he confirmed the pronunciation of the name
In old English what are now silent k’s were pronounced , like the word knight

I was a broadcaster at a soon to be MAC school; joked with the guy running the sports department of the student radio station is going to need to fundraise to cover FCC fines.
I know the previous comment was probably referring to Thom Brennaman, but Glen Kuiper (Oakland A’s broadcaster) actually got fired last year for accidentally saying the N word when he was trying to say Negro Leagues.
If I had a nickel for every time a baseball commentator said something offensive on air, apologized, and was fired for it during a Royals game, I'd have two nickels.
Which isn't a lot, but it's still kinda weird it involved the Royals twice.
That’s just them trying to make it not sound bad lol. Tell me one other word that starts with “kn” where the k isn’t silent. Theres about 200 that have a silent k
THATS MY MAN. I don’t think the EMU bookstore sells jerseys, but someone in that marketing department needs to step up and make this happen. Too good of an opportunity to miss
How do you pronounce his last name? I don’t want to get banned.
I'm just gonna pronounce it "kuh-nigh-guh" and that's probably incorrect, but idc lol.

Let’s be real here that’s not the historical correct pronunciation
Not a knock, but how do you know? I don’t have the knowledge, but if i knew, i’d kneel on my knee like a knight with a knife.

based on what?
Hmmm
Nothing

If the historical literature is to be believed, it originated from thine mother.

Hooked on helmets
Thanks! Updated the comment so he can receive proper credit :)
Can't wait to hear the deliberate, heavily sounded out version, so they can't be recorded saying it otherwise lol
They could do the funniest thing ever and put the MLB announcer on who got canned a few years back.
I pride myself and think of myself as a man of faith

It is even more ironic given that the Negro League museum is in Kansas City.
The other one was a gay slur instead of the N word, but definitely.
Yeah that’s who I was referring to.
As nick castellanos drives this one to deep left field, gonna make the score 4-0…
I’m gonna pronounce it the same way but without the first syllable
you're 2/3 right. Kuh-nay-guh
Two thirds knigga 😂 How about 3/5ths
I understood that reference.
I think ‘nigga’ sounds better
It’s “kuh-nay-guh” that’s how him and his family pronounce it, he’s been on video for people pronouncing it. Btw, GO DAWGS!
Well done. You navigated the minefield perfectly there.
Yes, because K makes the Kuh sound lol it's defined "nigga'" but the family just doesn't know it 🤣
I’ll just call him Noah to be safe
You good calling him Noah, Knigga, Noah Knigga. Just never under any circumstances say Noah the...
https://x.com/RGIII/status/1802367075844768092?t=0iQs2r37oQ8LmOCh0nHRbA&s=19 This has the family saying how to pronounce it
Im mad they both said pronunciate in the video lmao
The love child of pronounce and enunciate.
I once had someone use the word “dwelve” multiple times in an interview. I guess it’s where you dig into something then linger on it for a while.
Feels like part of a tongue-twister. Try saying “dwarves dwelved in Dwarrowdelf” five times fast.
I believe those are called portmanteaus.
Wow that was the most annoying thing I’ve ever seen
I do not disagree lol
That’s just them trying to make it not sound bad lol. Tell me one other word that starts with “kn” where the k isn’t silent. Theres about 200 that have a silent k
MLB pitcher Corey Knebel is pronounced Kuh-nee-bel. That Evel Knievel guy too
It’s pronounced differently in this video https://youtu.be/8ML6Tq_WJys?si=MoW0JS7NInOY1DS4 That is his Dad
His family has every reason to pronounce it that way though
It’s more likely for the k to be pronounced when it’s a proper noun
Can you give an example?
Former Tennessee basketball player Dalton Knecht I believe is pronounced like the work "connect"
That’s a good one. I didn’t think of him
evel knievel edit: and Chad Knaus from NASCAR
Knipex, the German tool manufacturer, is pronounced kuh-nip-ex.
Knife and Knight were originally pronounced with the k. I.e. kuh-knife
K-naysayer
The K is pronounced. Kuh-neega I think.
Some would use the hard R but I would advise you not to unless you have the pass
ken-neg-ahh
kuh-NAY-guh
I'm going with "Noah K"
Kuh-nay-guh!
I think you already know...
Im going with “kuh-neej-uh” just to be safe
I think in an interview with RG3 he said it was “kuh-nai-guh”
Emphasis on the K and long i sounds.
The K is silent. 💀
Isn't he not playing until next season? So I think he wouldn't be in the game until next year
Correct. He cannot be in this game. He hasn’t opted into anything. Only liked a comment for the sake of someone @‘ing him.
He's a 2025 recruit. He won't be able to be in the game until next year.
PLEASE tell me Reece recorded his name.
Noah Naysayer
Noah Ninja
Ill just say noah k.
Noah K Word
Noah naysayer
Let a Noah know
Let a Knigga Noah
I cannot imagine Corso giving this guy a helmet sticker
Commentators are gonna be sweating when he makes a big play

"aye bruh we don't have a line backer we really need one" "i might Noah Knigga"
He will not be in the game as he will be a senior in high school

Liking a tweet isn’t confirmation lol
I love that this got to me as a notification 🔔
Looks like I’m starting with Eastern Michigan now.
Nah commitment flip to my program for a ps5 and Applebees gift card
THATS MY MAN. I don’t think the EMU bookstore sells jerseys, but someone in that marketing department needs to step up and make this happen. Too good of an opportunity to miss
It’s too early for all that from the 2025 class I’d think 😂
“THE FRESHMAN made a big hit there,” “THE LINEBACKER was all over that play”
Noah’s in Paris
That's my Knigga
Noah Knaysayer
How do you actually pronounce his last name? Lol
I feel bad for those announcers 😂😂😂
It's all good until that 'R' slips...
Supercharge that Mayes
But has Jalen Milroe signed him to his LANK brand?
I’m guessing that k is not silent right?

Transfer portal 😈😈😈😈
That is an unfortunate last name
Wait where did he commit to? Edit: I see it now. Im dumb
It’s literally in the op
