That doesn't make sense phonetically, or due to it being [AFAIK] a corruption of the word "why".

I don't think any one of you needs me to tell you how to pronounce my name. I could explain why I chose it... but that would just be off topic!

"Crimson" is pretty easy to pronounce. Let's hope we don't have trouble with that.

I've always pronounced "Ryu" as "Ree-u." That's probably wrong, but I've always pronounced it that way so... it's stuck.

Let's hope we don't have trouble pronouncing "17" either.

TAWM DINKT.

The "Ch" don't make the sound they would if I were to say, "Children", "Chiodos", or Chocolate.

The "Ch" make the same sound a lone "K" or "-ck" would make.

I've been trying to stress that since I joined here.

Too bad Nate had to change his name.
I've always wanted to know how "kaemmerite" was pronounced.

Well, at least I can wait for Jamie to arrive.

I think we may be tied for most misunderstood pronunciation.

Once again, "Kkun" and "kaemmerite" even though kaemmerite's new name is quite easy to pronounce.

Ah... well, the word 'wry' is actually a word on its own -e.g, 'a wry smile'. In that case, at least where I live and how we pronounce things, we'd pronounce it like 'rye'.

As for me: 'Foe-toe-sohf'
As for the shortened version I sometimes use: 'Psoph', I like to think of it as being 'Pee' (as in the letter, though I imagine with a wince how many people are going to grin at the spelling. :sweat: ) 'Sohf'. So... 'P-Soph'. :)

I like to call her just Soph or sometimes Sophie. Anyway my user name is pronounced.

That Dood. The U doesn't make the sound it would in say Uuugh. It has the eeehw! sound to to it. If that still gives you trouble just call me...Your Royal Radness.

Postby agasfas » Wed Sep 05, 2007 11:12 pm

agasfas ... To be honest I don't even know what the "correct" pronunciation would be. I think it was originally a mnemonic of some sorts that I created for one of my classes but I don't quite remember. The only reason I kept name as long as I have is because I realized that every letter was on the same side and row of the keyboard so I can type it quickly and w/o having to lift my hand up.

I've heard my friends say:
ah-gus-fuss
ah-gus-fass
ah-gas-fass

Not too sure, but suggestions are always welcomed. :)

MyrrhLynn = Merlin

It's a female version of the name (with the same pronunciation) that I made up. Most people don't get that at first so they think it's a wierd spelling of Mary-Lynn or something around those lines, which is not even close. :lol:

Felix - Pronounced: "flicks." The 'e' is silent.

No wait! I'm kidding! That's not it... let's try this again.

Felix - Pronounced: "fell-eeks."

... hmm... I don't think that's right either.

Hold on! I think I've got it now. One more time, I swear.

Felix - Prounced: "felix." Ah, there we go!
