What is the correct way to pronounce SEGA?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rh5eis0sMHI

say gah like the startup sound

>>3195931

I hear "seh gah", not "say gah"

se (seh) ga (gah)

Service Games

Why always Sega? Nobody ever asks how to pronounce Nintendo, Sony, Atari, Commodore, IBM, Apple etc.

>>3195936

That's a good question.

Here's how I pronounce these:

Nintendo: Neen-ten-doh
Sony: Soh-nee
Atari: Ah-Tah-Ree
Commodore: Koh-Moh-Dohrr
IBM: Eye Be Em
Apple: Ah'pl.

>>3195936
>Nintey-uhndo
>Sun-e
>Atta-ree
>Co-mo-dor-ray
>ihb-em
>App-lee

>>3195936
How many ways can you actually pronounce IBM?

>>3195940

Get normie;

Nin ten doe
Soh nee
Ah Tar Ree
Cah mah dohr
IBM
Aa pl

>>3195942
As one word like the Arab ibn.

>>3195945

normies pronounce Sony like Sawney

>>3195935
Saabisu geemu

>>3195948

Not where I live, maybe in the south or something.

>>3195952

It was sage all along

>>3195929
lol
the latin alphabet surely doesn't fit english and french languages

Not this thread again.

*fart*

Turn on your genesis with Sonic cart inserted.

That's how it's pronounced. You have to sing it that way too.

>>3195931
The startup of Sonic, you mean?

In Italy, traditionally (even in old commercials) is "See-Ga", because sega in italian means "saw" and it's a slang term for handjob. However, nowadays among enthusiasts is pronounced in the correct way.

In old commercial for Megadrive (Genesis) in french.

>>3196280
In no universe do Americans add an -r to the end of vowels. That's a Britfag thing.

Obviously the Japanese pronunciations are correct.
セガ SeGa
にんてんどう NiNTeNDô
ソニー SoNî
アタリ ATaRi

English language and pronounciation is a fucking diaster anyway. How many fucking ways of pronouncing the vowel A do you have?

>>3195929

>>3195952
It was founded in America as Service Games, the Japs had nothing to do with it.

Well it's like my Uncle Hans, who raped me as a boy, would always say: You can't spell "Sega" without "Putrid Dog Shit"!

It probably just doesn't register to your ear. It's pretty common.

Those don't count, they are Japanese transliterations of English words, or in the case of IBM, a three letter abbreviation.

It's pronounced like this you big dummy.

http://vocaroo.com/i/s0MlYcWGAJvH

>>3195929
Correct: sehguh
Amerifat: saygar
Crikey m8: seegah

>>3200816
>Amerifat: saygar
Wrong. See >>3197118

>>3200391

Which is the same as Co. Ltd. in english.

It's pronounced セガ.

These arguments are absolutely retarded.

>>3201278
>it's pronounced SEGA

yeah, we're in the same problem.

Many languages have different ways of pronouncing vowels.

The anchors and correspondents on the BBC news that's broadcast in the USA do it from time to time. I've heard it in other places as well. Just because you haven't doesn't actually mean you haven't, in fact, it more likely means that even you do it so you don't notice.

Comma door.

In Italian the name of this company is embarassing, because "Sega" means bot "saw" (the tool) and "mastrurbation", so commercials always pronounced it "Siga" (see-gah) .
I think every italian kid who played Sonic turned down the TV volume when the company logo appeared.
Another fun fact, in some italian southern dialects "Nintendo" sounds like "I don't undersant".

>no one realizes pronunciation is localised.
