I almost fell off my chair when I saw a narrated video that was in one of those Capcom collections, in which the narrator called him "RAYUH".

Was it David Sirlin's Super Turbo tutorial videos on Capcom Classics Collection 2? I don't know how that tourneyfag got into a position of being an authority, much less handle emulation compilations of old games.

How are you supposed to pronounce Hsien-Ko?

RAH-YOO

>>3866423
I've always pronounced he-sen-ko

>>3866423
"shen koh" i think?

>>3866423
she aint co

>>3866423
Hsien is an alternate romanization for xian (pronounced "shien," roughly), which can mean several different things in Chinese. The likely meaning is "immortal."

It's possible that her name is a combination of Chinese (Hsien) and Japanese (Ko), basically meaning "Immortal Girl."

In the JP version, she's Lei Lei, and her sister is Ling Ling.

Khsee-an-koh

Ryu is one syllable in Japanese. Japanese uses a syllabary (consonant + vowel pairings, or just solo vowels) instead of an alphabet. Each syllable / character is pronounced as one unit, distinctly from any other syllable appearing in the word or name.

I don't think there's an approximate way to indicate how the syllable "ryu" would be pronounced in English, because English lacks any phoneme that sounds like the "ry" phoneme in Japanese.

The same way the announcer does in this game

>>3864587
Gweel

Ree oo

>>3864527
鉚 whats so hard to say about that?

>>3867615
you're not wrong so here's the how one would pronounce リュウ in english Ryū or reeeyouu

>>3866423
Try to make a sh sound while rolling your tongue so that it's approximately close to a J sound

>>3866423
In Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds, most of the English-speaking actors, including the announcer, cannot properly pronounce her name, instead saying it as "shin-ko", "sen-ko", "sheng-ko", and "hee-sen-ko". The correct way is in fact "syen-ko", as heard in Super Gem Fighter Mini Mix.
