Everybody, please read and relpy

I actually perfer the pso names for some odd reason.

[LaconianShot]

Hide-el-bear? That's odd...I pronounce it as Hill-duh-bear (finetically spelled, except for bear). I still like the old PS names, though.<br>I should really start a pronunciation thread on the Phantasy Star forum. How do you pronounce Mieu, for example. I say it like mew...as in a cat mews...

[Mizehrith]

I like both.<p>

I should really start a pronunciation thread on the Phantasy Star forum.

<br>That's actually a pretty good idea. I thought about it myself, some time ago, but never got around to it. I've always wondered - would "Rhys" be pronounced "riz", or "rice"..?

[Prince Noah]

I think it's Rize. Wren (RENN)

[Siren]

Hide-el-bears? Hahaha! That's funny, but I know someone who is even more of an idiot. <p>This kid who occasionally comes over to my friend's house calls Hildebears (I pronounce Hild-a-bares) Hindubears. The idiot was trying to make fun of a religion. He also said " Huh? Goombas? Aaahh jeez, those guys copied Mario!" when he saw a Booma. <p>I don't think he knows how to read very well...

Remember, we were new to this. He actually got bored of the game, he was a Lvl 102 Hunewearl, all wasted.....Now he doesn't play. Oh well, people like what they like.

*shrugs* I'll just chalk it all up to linguistic drift. It's been known to happen...

[Flare137]

about old/new names i like new but i shorten them like moon atomizer (i cant spell well) we say like use a moon or i need a sol i need a mate ect. <p>my friends are also notorious for not pronouncing anything right like bmaaa instead of booma and they spelled samauri (you were forewarnded) samori. now thats pathetic. i was like WTF were you thinking :hitting: <p>my friends should shut the :devil: up until they learn how to say the words!

[Neo48]

LoL. Its not like the game tells you how to pronounce things.....

[Flare137]

they still suck ( )<p>now i call them that also :@

[Neo48]

If you were learning new words and you only saw the word Island, no one told how to pronouce it, how would you say it?

[Benoit]

I would use the knowledge I already have to know how to pronounce it.

[Neo48]

Excactly. Everyone has a certain amount of knowledge.
