Crazy man: I would like to see that Hermes (pronounces it Her-MEES) scarf.
Man selling scarves and necklaces: It's pronounced air-mess. If you can't pronounce it, you probably can't afford it.

Man selling scarves and necklaces: That has nothing to do with this scarf. The French can call it whatever they want.
