What are some wrong pronunciations you've heard or said.

I always called Cecil in FF4, See-sil.
In FF4 DS they pronounce it Seh-sil.
I still call him See-sil anyway.

I have no idea how Maribel from Dragon Warrior 7 is pronounced, and it's bothered me for a very long time. Is it pronounced like Marble? Mary-Bell? I could never decide which. Made dialogue involving her name very weird for me.

Heard Too many people pronouncing names wrong.
Merry-o(Mario)
Rye-you(ryu)
Zelda(link)
Fucking bullshit cheap ass character(akuma)

Rye-oo is the official way to pronounce his name. Didn't you ever see the Street Fighter movie?

I still say saggot because it's better than saying SUH-got like a faggot.

>Ryu
"Rye-you" is also correct

>Sagat: "Saggot" '
That was a 90s meme, so for english speakers sure it is correct. everyone called him Saggot the Faggot and it was because he spammed his uppercut shit like a little fag.

>>3688409
>Merry-o(Mario)
Literally how Luigi prounces his name.

>Zelda(link)
That was an 80s meme, massively popular for the series.

Meme = meme
Joke = meme
Some guy trolling = meme
A trend = meme

I used to pronounce Guile as Gwee-lay and my dad still calls them Pokey-man.

>>3688501
Trends are actually memes.

That's correct though.

サムス・アラン

"Say-muss" is wrong.

>>3689085
what about "Sam-us"?

>>3689085
>>3689137
Let's be precise about it: The Japanese spelling is spelled out "sa-mu-su". Some people are not sure whether to anglicize this as /ˈsæmus/ or /ˈsæməs/. The former certainly seems closer to the Japanese spelling (the latter would be more likely spelled in Japanese as "sa-ma-su").

Merry-o for Mario.

See Mario Lemuiex.

I once knew someone who called Ridley "Ride-lee".

>>3689085
some programs that say a word for you work. Sure it is pronounced like that in japan but English work's differently when a set of letters are put together to form some word or name. What's even better is going to official sources. I'm sure these names have been said especially announcers that solidify how they are pronounced.

Acronym or initialism?

>>3695542
I'd say Super en-ee-es. I'd also call it Super Nintendo.

I've seen debates on here about the pronunciation of SNES, then you mentioned autism, so I assumed a giant fish-hook lol

So initialism. I say it as an acronym, "Snes" or "Snez".

>>3695552
yeah I've heard it said as an acronym, but mostly recently on the internet. I don't remember hearing that growing up (in the northeast US).
