If a French person wants to say "LinkedIn" is its own unique french word, then they can all STFU at any pronunciation of croissant they deem unworthy.
CrussAunt. Fight me.
LinkedIn is an English word. Pronounce it correctly, or we revoke your "tell anyone how to pronounce anything" card.
Yeah my point here is rooted in living amongst French speakers who will correct an American or British pronunciation of a word like croissant. And those same folks cannot pronounce "LinkedIn" even though it's far more pervasive in their vernacular than croissant is in ours.
But I only use this weapon as defense.
