TURRON?!?!???
Turron, turron, turron
French 'r' doesn't sound like 'w'
In the word 'croissant' it sounds a lot more like English W than English R (as well as very different from R in other French words).
No it doesn't. The 'r' in croissant is a very pronounced 'r' sound. It is just English speakers pronouncing it wrong by conflating it with the following 'oi' sound, who thinks it resembles a 'w' more.
It sure doesn't. When people pronounce it like that, they're imitating a segment from a kids' show (forget whether it was Dexter's Lab or Jimmy Neutron)
