The ‘Swiss Maestro’, Roger Federer, throughout his career in tennis, has been involved in various business ventures. In 2021, he officially collaborated with Switzerland Tourism as a brand ambassador. Through this collaboration, he aimed to promote Swiss National Tourism while also focusing on the endeavors of his very own Roger Federer Foundation. As part of the ongoing collaboration, the 41-year-old former tennis player joined hands with the renowned South African comedian, Trevor Noah, for a commercial ad campaign which certainly caught the attention of the fans.

Roger Federer hilariously tries and fails at pronouncing complex words with Trevor Noah

For the 2023 ‘MySwitzerland’ ad campaign, Roger Federer starred with the renowned South African comedian and TV show host Trevor Noah. The conversation between the two stars turned into an entertaining banter. Both were checking the knowledge of the other in their native language. Federer challenged Noah, who hails from a Swiss-German lineage, to speak some specific words in Swiss-German, like, Hello (pronounced as ‘Gruezi’) and Five (pronounced as ‘Fuf, foif’).

Later, there was immense laughter when Noah deliberately hit back with his classic humor at Federer to check with his knowledge about Xhosa (primarily spoken language in South Africa). Noah suggested the phrase ‘partly cloudly’ (pronounced as ‘Liza kuthi grab-gqaba ngamafu’) to Federer. The ‘Swiss Maestro’ couldn’t guess the correct pronunciation.

Soon after that, the comedian found a better way to help Federer get the correct pronunciation. He came up with some clever tennis references. Particularly the idea of a ‘topspin stroke’, but this time, instead of a racquet, he asked the 20-time Grand Slam champion to use his tongue. Noah said, ‘Hit a topspin with your tongue’. Being a humorous personality, Noah checked Federer’s patience and kept on practising until they acquired positive results. And finally, after multiple attempts, Federer decoded the pronunciation.

Fans certainly enjoyed watching this duo on the screen come up with humorous content for their fans. Federer never leaves a chance to entertain his fans on-court and off-court.
