We have one in Finnish "välineurheilija". "Väline" is "sports equipment" and "urheilija" is athlete, so it's literally just "equipmentathlete" and used derogatorily towarsd people who — instead of actually practicing — just show up in very expensive gear.
Has "couch expert"/"couch warrior" vibe.
Correct
If it was only easier to pronounce...
Wah-leh-neh (silent h's and the first a is like in can and ant)
Oor-hey-leh-yuh
