    IKEA = Ingvar Kamprad (founder) Elmtaryd (the farm he was born) Agunnaryd (the village close to the farm)
    My father was from the province where this location can be found, so he knew this well.

      It makes sense to know ABBA is Swedish, because it's a band. You know the people behind band, and that's why you know where it's from.
      But H&M is just another soulless corporation among thousands of others. Why would you know who is behind it, and where they are from? It seems like a much more niche piece of trivia than knowing the bandmembers of a band lol.

    Iingvar Kamprad was living during a long time in Switzerland, near Lausanne. He was living in Switzerland for tax reason. When he is dead, he had the 8th wealth in the World. But, he is know to be very stingy. For instance, he went to the supermaket in Switzerland around 18 hours, because the supermaket closes at 18 hours 30. Of course, supermarket makes discount on articles that needs to be sold this day, so Ingvar Kamprad was buying these articles with discount. 😂

    When IKEA launched in the USA around 1990, their corporate marketing told us to pronounce it as "Eye-KEE-Uh". I don't know why they chose to do that, since the native pronunciation is no more difficult to say. (Honestly, any four-letter word with three vowels could be pronounced a hundred different ways in English, haha.)

    My pronunciation as a Swedish-speaking Finn varies:
    For Arken I follow the Swedish pronunciation (just without the pitch accent); I pronounce H&M, Volvo, Fjällräven and Iittala the Finnish way; Spotify depends on the language (in German I pronounce it like in British English, in English either in British or American English, and in Finnish and Swedish I pronounce it the Finnish way); Ikea the Finnish way except the E is accented and longer, Mercedes-Benz also depends on the language (I pronounce it according to the language, except in Swedish the first E is closer to Ä or Æ, the R and C are pronounced separately, and I'm lacking the pitch accent, sometimes I drop the "Benz" part); Maison Margiela I try the French way (I've never actually heard of the brand before); Zara I pronounce it the Finnish way except the first A is long; and finally, I pronounce Versace the Italian way.

    In my opinion when it comes to brand names pronunciation a lot of it comes down to how "international" a person or a society is. A Finnish person from a small town that isn't very invested in international things (what we would call a "juntti") would pronounce brand names very different than someone from Helsinki.

    The Fjällräven backpack is popular because of nostalgia. When I started first grade as a child in the early 80:s it was the most common bag for kids in Sweden. That changed but when my generation started having kids there was a new surge in popularity for the backpack and adults started using it too. By then Sweden was very good at promoting our brands internationally so it just took off.

    H&M means Hennes and Mauritz. We used to say Hennes for short, meaning hers. Her that is of course Greta Garbo and Mauritz is Mauritz Stiller, actor and filmmaker that worked a lot with Greta Garbo. Possibly her "discoverer". Now this is only the legend version. The more boring version is that first the was a company called Hennes-Hers refering to Greta Garbo, that sold women's clothing. Then they started working with another company called Mauritz Widforss Handels AB that sold men's clothing and that became Hennes & Mauritz - H&M. But you must agree, the first version is more mystical 😜😝

    I can see Finnish frustration on the face of a Finnish participant when others are surprised that H&M is Swedish.

    3:20 No, we say "dix heures" (private joke even for most French people).
    3:48 Volvo is a Latin word, its meaning is "I'm rolling". Pretty sure the Swedish girl doesn't know it.
    6:29 Nope, the UK pronounce it the same way than in continental Europe. It's in the US Ikea is pronouced this way.
    7:52 The Mercedes-Benz name is a combination of two names: Mercedes Jellinek and Karl Benz. Originally, Mercedes-Benz was founded by Karl Benz and Gottlieb Wilhelm Daimler and was part of Daimler Motoren Gesellschaft, better known as DMG. The company was first known by the name Daimler-Benz, as an homage to the founders.
    After Gottlieb Wilhelm Daimler passed away, entrepreneur and racing enthusiast Emil Jellinek was brought on by chief engineer Wilhelm Maybach. Emil went on to help create the Mercedes 35hp in 1900. Jellinek named the new cars after his daughter, Mercédès Jellinek, whose Spanish name translated to “mercy.” The company later went on to have the “Mercedes” name trademarked 1902. While the company continued to trade as Daimler-Benz, the car line began to carry the Mercedes-Benz name.
    8:04 In "French hood" and north eastern France some people shorten the name by only saying Benz, there's even a popular French rap song titled "Ma Benz".
