When you move to San Francisco there is a lot to learn! Knowing how to pronounce the local Streets, Bars, Neighborhoods will score you extra points with the locals and make it a lot easier to describe your adventures!
Streets
Gough (gah) – NOT like Van Gogh
Greenwich (gren-itch) – NOT a green witch
Haight (hate) – NOT like the hotel
Noe (no-ee) – NOT no
Thats it for now, I’ll update this post next time someone calls us out for being total noobs. Do you know any places in San Francisco that are constantly mispronounced? Let me know And we will add it to the list.
