How do you pronounce “Eux Autres”?
| Eux Autres is French for “Them Others”…
We realize most people don’t how to pronounce “Eux Autres.” Yet for some reason, this didn’t occur to us when we chose a band name. Frankly, we thought the words Eux Autres looked cool. And since, among ourselves, we call it only “the band”, we overlooked the tongue twister we were inflicting on everyone else. Sure, we thought about renaming the band, but what fun would that be? Then people would actually be able to tell their friends about this band they discovered. We figure that naming your band Eux Autres is akin to naming your child Myron. He’s probably going to suffer, but it’ll make him stronger in the end. The best phonetic spelling we’ve come up with is “OOZ-OH-TRA,” but really you can say it however you want. Some people call us Ooze Ah Trays. Others call us Ox Oaters or even Oaks O’Trays. Some refer to us as Them Others (the literal translation). One person calls us Ex-Otters. Really, we’re not too particular about how you say it, but to ease the pain we’ve created an easy pronunciation guide. We have included our bastardized way of saying it and the correct French pronunciation. Simply click on the widgets below to hear exactly how to say Eux Autres. Thank you for being patient with us.
