Do you speak with an accent?

[livatlantis]

lol Aussie! My brother's in Sydney, and, as someone who spends the better part of his days doing 3D modeling and animation, spends a lot of time with Autodesk Maya.

Which, of course, is "May-uh" there. (As opposed to "māyā" as in "Mayan civilization" or even the Sanskrit/Nepali word "माया"). See-guh indeed!

 

[Satanstoenail]

Actually Maya is pronounced properly here. My-uh.

 

[Winter.]

There's two ways to pronounce Maya isn't there?

SAY-GUH MEGADRIIIIVE 32X.

The only worthwhile console ever made.
Srsly.

 

[SentinelSlain]

I pronounce it say-gah.

That how the dudes that sang it on start up did it back in the day.

 

[False Joe]

This is true.
I meant gah.

 

[Blind Guardian]

How do you pronounce Ninja Gaiden? I pronounce it Guy-den,i´ve heard people say Gay-den,but that´s wrong. The same thing with Gandalf,it´s Gu(y)ndalf,not Ga(y)ndalf. Funny thing is that they even pronounce it wrong in the movie.

 

[DarkBliss]

Guy-den seems just right to me.
Gay-den sounds pretty awkward.

Come to think of it, both are fruity.

Oh Well, it's apparently just my brother, then.

Say-Guh

I actually think Ozzman is right. It is Japanese.

The correct Japanese pronunciation would be Seh-guh, not Say-guh.

HOW DO YOU PRONOUNCE THE WORD "BRUTAL"?

"broo-tal" like it's spelled or "broodle" like "poodle"?

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Both, it's a matter of how fast I am saying it.

HOW DO YOU PRONOUNCE THE WORD "BRUTAL"?

"broo-tal" like it's spelled or "broodle" like "poodle"?

Usually with a hard "t" but if I'm speaking lazily then I'll pronounce it like the latter.

This doesn't really have anything to do with my regional accent though, it's just my personal preference.

 

[mutantllama]

broodle

 

[DarkBliss]

Broodle" is the way I hear it pronounced in American movies and TV shows and such.
Actually, I think it's pretty common for English words that end with "tal", like mortal, portal. When you talk fast, the "t" ends up sounding like a "d". There's a name for this linguistic phenomenon(sound assimilation, I think). Not sure

 

[SentinelSlain]

The correct Japanese pronunciation would be Seh-guh, not Say-guh.

put erm sonic or altered beat (i think) into a megadrive and turn it on missie.

 

[mutantllama]

SAYGAH!

It is a form of assimilation, the sound is actually called a flap, different from both "t" and "d".

erm, what?

SAYGAH!

Yeah that's how it's pronounced here. I'm just saying the actual Japanese pronunciation would be seh-guh. If it were say-guh, it would have to be spelled Seiga.

 

[SentinelSlain]

on the intro it says say-gah
