But in Russia, from the very first Xerox copier was named Xerox, and now no one will understand what is at stake if he hears "ziroks».

Hyundai
Translated from the Korean «Hyundai» means "modernity". Correct Russian transliteration of the word - "Hyundai" with the accent on the last syllable.

Nike
The brand name comes from the name of the goddess of victory Nike and the original sounds "Nike." That is how to pronounce it in the United States.

Lewis

People continue to be interested, argue, argue, but all the evidence is in this case boils down to two points: English speakers often say Livayz because according to the rules of the English name of Levi read as "Lebanon"; but the creator of the first jeans called Levi.
Levi Strauss was a German Jew, get the name at birth Loeb. At age 18, he moved from his native Bavaria in San Francisco, and his name is for the convenience of casting in the United States turned to Levy. And if you follow the grammar of the English language, that is correct, "Lewis».

Samson
Samsung pronounced in Russia pronounced as "Samsung", but more correctly "Samson", with the accent on the first syllable, which means "three stars».
