Is there any difference in pronunciation between "Ne, Kou-chan"

Yes.

>>16294783
Can you describe it?

>>16294839
Just say it out loud.

>>16294846
I don't know how to pronounce it, that's why I'm asking you.

Please note that the pause where the comma is should be ignored. Imagine you're saying the former as quickly as you would say the latter at a mild speed.

ね and ねこ have different enunciation on ね so no

Also "こう" is different from "こ" don't you see the extra letter?

>>16294897
One would usually emphasize the 'u' in 'Kou-chan', so it does in fact sound different to 'Neko-chan'.

>>16294897
You can't just ignore it and even if you did, it would still sound different.

Sounds the same to me.

You're deaf.

Blah, at least give the time when said part happened; I'm not going to watch through the entire 25 or so minutes of it.

It's right there next to [Embed].

Open the link in a new tab and you don't even have to jump to it.

ku, sou-thread

Well, now I feel stupid.
Thanks for not being a jerk about it though; now I at least know you're serious.

But yes, it's still different. You can hear the 'u', and there's even a slight delay before each syllables.

There's an extra syllale in Na, Kou-cha. Furthermore, there's a pause due to a comma.

U actually has a sound and you an hear it, but in romaji it's been standardized to drop double vowels completely, which is stupid.

>>16295456
>Na, Kou-cha
what a mess I've made

>>16294737
Ne, Kou-chan uses a high e and a long o. Neko-chan uses a mid e and a short o.

Heh heh
