Can someone please tell me how Americans, or whoever this meme is about, pronounce croissant? Because I only know the french pronunciation and can not imagine another one.
Generally, in the US, it’s pronounced as cres-AHNT. It has a clear R sound, the T at the end involves moving your tongue toward the T position, but the word ends without a clear T sound (as opposed to the French pronunciation, where the R becomes a W and the word ends on the N sound, with the T completely omitted.)
