Pronunciation of company names

[chrispyminis]

bump. because i was entertained.

and i still hear different pronunciations for Anon, Siver, Dynastar, Blizzard, Giro, Kastle... etc

when will we learn?

I'm pretty sure kastle is pronounced kest-lee, and giro is pronounced jyro.

 

[Brule.]

ON3P as ON3P

i called my praxis' "prax-ees" for a while after i bought them until someone visiting me from tahoe corrected me

is it dal-bell-o or dal-bay-yo(or however you'd spell that silent L sound)

i said on-ep for a while too

dynafit has the same thing going on as dynastar obviously

stoke-lee or stock-lee?

It's not Sega, it's Saga. I like to think that if the company name is an actual word in the dictionary it's probably pronounced the same way, but some like to be sneaky

dang I thought it was pronounced so-gay

 

[toastyteenagers]

Saga.

All my friends say it like say-gah

But I'm pretty sure its pronounced sah-gah.

Maybe it's a just a Buffalo thing.

it's not a buffalo thing, your friends think that it's a video game comany and that's not cool

Heres my questionables:

-Rossignol

-Arc'Teryx

-Sabek

-4FRNT (unless its just 4 Front)

 

[250r]

i don't see how you could pronounce rossignol wrong

arc-tear-ix

haven't heard of sabek

and yes, its just 4 front

oh good. you guys picked it right back up..

for some reason phoenetical(is that the right word?) spelling entertains the shit outta me.

giro's the only one i think i say wrong, "jeeroh"..when i think the rep said it's "jiy-roh"...but that sounds silly to me.

 

[yuck]

kastle i believe is pronounce KESS-lee

not sure where i heard that though so it could be wrong

but to weigh in on the others in here:

sigh-ver

dee-na-star

anon as in anonymous
