Which usernames make you insecure how to pronounce them correctly?

[noname223]

I am German which makes it even more difficult. I always wondered how to pronounce @derpyderpins

There was a time in my head where I called @Chinaski Chinsaki. Lol. Please fogive me!

I still don't know if it's just a keyboard smash or not...

@rozeske, @pthnrdnojvsc, and @KuriGohan&Kamehameha

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

I can't say I've ever really said a Sasu user's name out loud so pronunciation has never really been an issue to me.

@rozeske, @pthnrdnojvsc, and @KuriGohan&Kamehameha

surprisingly it isn't mutual, i knew my russian lessons on Duolingo would pay off for something besides sending me a billion threatening reminders everyday to keep learning unless I want to be skinned alive by the owl

The category you put me in with is a bit rough don't you think?

If it helps.....'s

I'm now regretting my choice of username though lol, at the time CTB was on the very, very near horizon so I didn't put much thought into it, just took the name of a magnificent character from the Dostoyevsky novel I was reading at the time. I know I can change it but I fear whatever I pick next will be equally bad

I guess I was close, I was saying "roze-ess-key"!

@Praestat_Mori - Sorry Praestat! You know I love you to bits though- right? As most of us do I expect... But, I didn't do Latin, so I've no idea if what I have in my head is correct.

Classical Latin is spoken the way it is written. The sound of the diphthong ae is very similar to the sound of the word eye. Idk how to describe it any better in words. You can try google translate and listen to how google reads it.

People tend to call me Mori. That sounds neat and is a nice nickname - Praestat as a nickname doesn't sound so nice I think.

I hope I'm not getting in here. Otherwise, it'll mean that I have an ugly ... not only my face

[............]

Bumping this because hello there.

My name is
"Period dot-period dot-period dot-period dot-period dot-period dot-period dot-period dot-period dot-period dot-period dot".

 

[avalon_]

For anyone wondering, the n with the dot in my name is pronounced like the n in the english word anger.

Not a problem for someone who has listened to several buddhist audiobooks

In the OP the A&S are reversed. Took me a minute to see that too.

I probably don't even try most of the time if I can't figure it out. But I have one mental block that I can't help keeping - sorry @Namelesa
It will always be name Lisa in my brain even though you have stated numerous times it's name less with an A

Best way to pronounce the last bit is think of the word "less" and put an "a" at the end.

Name-les-a

Sorry, but my brain will just not go there. I am old and set in my ways.

Haha that was funny

I was wondering how your name is pronounced? Wondering if it would be like someone doing a sneeze

BTW no offense intended!!

I already explained it above. It's very intuitive if you know how the ṅ is pronounced.

Like as in as-an-kha-ta?

More like asan-khata, I think. Might be less intuitive if you're english native.
