    The French word for bird is oiseau, which contains every vowel and none of them are pronounced correctly.

      Oi wah

      S Z

      Eau O

      Sound correct to me.

      Letters in words are never pronounced like they sound in the alphabet, they are pronounced in syllables like I am showing you here but you probably already know that and chose not to say it because its not against the French language.
