How do you pronounce fuchs?
 

I had a moto-x bike years ago called PUCH
it was pronounced like pook--is it the same for FUCHS?

i always thought it was a little softer.

Foosh

This has come up several times and could have been answered by using the "search" button at the top right of your screen.

The answer is that it is pronounced like: Fooks.

Deutsche word meaning fox. We say fox; they say"foox" with long "o".

Re: How do you pronounce fuchs?
 

I believe that PUCH was a bike produced in Austria.
The end-CH is very gutteral, hard to describe.

Fooxs is close enough for FUCHS.
Singular is the same as plural since it's a brand-name:
1 Fuchs wheel
2 Fuchs wheels.

For the animal fox (Fuchs) it's different:
1 Fuchs
2 Fuechse

Want to try some French?
How about the car "Peugot"? :)
Can be fun.
Pjoogat? :D :D

poo zho....
Or would that be zwei? And what do you mean by "try French?"
sounds kinda personal.....................:D
Foox rock.:cool:

Is there a difference between Fooks and Foox? Sounds the same to me. :rolleyes:

Nope. Yep. :)

hey schooter you should try the search...

That's easy -- EX-PEN-SIVE. :D

It's just like "books" but with an F.

Yes. But you spelled it wrong. It's Schurche. Pronounced "schurcha", as in Porsche.

You are correct!

Fuchs kinda rhymes with cooks, books, looks, rooks nooks, hooks, brooks - though may vary depending on where in Germany you are I believe.

If only one wheel, it's one Fuchs, not one Fuch.

Wrong.

good grief

bro i had a PUCH TRAK PRO wicked bike ,it was made by Styer Daimler

It depends if there are kids around:p

I stand in awe.....augh??

I had a buddy back in highschool with the last name Fuchs. Its pronounced "Fukes"/"fooks", but of course we always called him something else :)

Yes it was made in Austria (some of them) with Renolds 531s. My first real racing bike I rode in USCF races as a junior in the mid 80's just like Connie Carpenter's. Same ugly green color. For those old rodies, remember her?

Isn't it Astro Daimler? It's been so long, I might be wrong. Many bikes back then were hand build by small factory and stamp their name or stickers on it. Was your Renolds tubing or Columbus. I have seen both on them. Sorry for hijacking the thread. I just couldn't resist.

Jeff

Phonetically, you say: fooks
