//Trying to pronounce "de Broglie" in math phys //Some things are spelled phonetically Jesse: I think it's de BRO-glee. Sam: I've also heard de BROY-lee and de BROY. Jesse: De BROY? Where's the G? Sam: It's French. French has a lot of silent letters. Anna: De BROY...like Detroy? Richard: What's Detroy? Anna: You know, the city. Jesse: Do you mean Detroit? Anna: Yeah, but the T is silent, isn't it? Everyone: No... Anna: I've been pronouncing it wrong this whole time? Several people: Yes. Anna: But...in that Journey song...they say Detroy! It rhymes with "boy"! Sam: No. Just...no.
