Re: The Pronunciations Thread!
Okay. Let's see.
How do you say pronounciation?
1.) Pro-noun-see-(na)tion
2.) Pro-nuns-ee-ation
Or.. are you special and say it a different way?

Sorry, I can't say the word without implanting it in your mind. So, picture!

Re: The Pronunciations Thread!
Um......I use all three terms often......I guess I'd just say shoes......unless they tie then I call them running shoes......
Re: The Pronunciations Thread!
It should be "pronunciations", just saying. =P
I call them shoes, unless they are tennis shoes, of course. xP
How you pronounce pwn?
I say it as "pawn".

Re: The Pronunciations Thread!
pwn? well since it was derived from owned, I always thought it was pronounced, poned.
And this one isn't pronunciation, but it's spelling so same category:
do you spell......grey or gray?
Me personally, grey. It just looks better

Re: The Pronunciations Thread!
Hmm... well, #2, and I guess it is spelled wrong. Drat.
Well, I either say shoes or tennis shoes. I never say sneakers.
I say it as "pone" as well. "pawn" is a ches piece.
Ohh... I've honestly never noticed this. Hmm... I think I use "gray". According to Crayola, it's.. "gray". Now Webster's has it as...
Gray: 1) Of a color gray
Grey: 1) A variation of gray
So... I guess "gray" has the official def., but grey would still be right. Of couse, this is according to Webster's.
Well... Here's something: When you see "lol", do you say it in your mind as:
1) L-O-L
2a) Lol
2b) Lul
I, actually, say it like "loul". I don't know why; it's like a variation of 2a and 2b.

Re: The Pronunciations Thread!
Now that I think about it....I never say sneaker much either....lol
Grey just seems right.....I don't know why.....hmmm
Um when I see lol.....I'm actually saying the letters like l o l. I don't say it like a word
Do you say Aunt.....like
Aunt (ont with an o like on.)or
Ant?
I always say ont and everyone looks at me funny....or they say ant....I don't think I've ever met another person to say aunt except my mom

Re: The Pronunciations Thread!
Pro-noun-see-a-tion
I call them trainers. Everyone here says that
I say lol together. Guess I'm much too lazy to say each letter one by one
I say pwn as pawn. /shrug/ I probably do 'cause I played too much chess
I use both greys/grays. Whatever feels right.
I say aunt like... the word aren't.

Re: The Pronunciations Thread!
I spell it as gray. Grey looks wrong to me.
Aunt.. said as Ant.
Said as 'ont' if I want to sound refined. xD
But mostly ant.
LOL? Depends on the way it's being typed.
Lol, LOL, lul/z, lol/z, lawl/z
Lul/z would be pronounced as "lull".
Lawl/z, law-l-z
Lol.. Loll, possibly. Loul?

Re: The Pronunciations Thread!
I say the letters in 'lol'. =P
Gray and grey depend on what mood I'm in and how I feel like typing it.
I say Ant.
Rofl? Roffle or ar-oh-eff-ell? Or something else?

I pronounce the whole thing

Re: The Pronunciations Thread!
Woods sounds more... public and neat. Forest to me sounds like big.
But usually woods.
Tom-ah-to tom-may-to. That used to be a chant at my primary school.
Whenever someone pretended to be American they used to emphasise the AY so much.
You say tom-may-to here, people look at you funny and ask if you're from somewhere else.
Hairdryer.
