I'm British btw so a word may look like it's pronounced one way but actually pronounced like something way bloody different.

ta-ta! tea and crumpets!

SAY-GAH

You have to say it like a screaming Asian man.

It rhymes with BETA, which is what you are if you bought that instead of Nintendo.

No, SEGA rhymes with BETA, unless you're a Brit. Pip pip cheerio, lad.

>>3904381

Do british people actually pronounce it "say-gar" with an r at the end? Where did that meme come from?
>>
SEAEAH-GYUOEAGH
>>
>>3904474
Brits (and ozzies too, I think) add random R's to their words where there shouldn't be any R's. The really weird thing is they don't actually pronounce R when it does show up in a word, they just skip it.
>>
>>3904474
Nah, there's a few local accents that would inflect that way but by and large it's say-guh
>>
>>3904474
almost londoner here i say "say ger"

I have always said sea-ga, like everyone else. Americans usually say say-gar I've founded. They have a rhotic accent, so they say R in a strange way.
>>

WOW mate, back to the kangaroo with this shrimp on the barbie.

Holy shit. Pop in sonic 1 and turn on the system, they fucking say it as it appears onscreen

Watch TV before the Mega Drive existed, let alone Sonic. They say Sea-ga

Seh-guh or say-guh are both acceptable.

Now here's one.

How do you pronounce Darius?
>>
>>3905162
Darry rhymes with barry
Us as in the two of us.
>>
>>3905162

Dar-ee-us
Dar as in dark.
>>
>>3905139
Thats because a japanese company translated a script, then had a fucking english guy read it. They probably didnt realize he was saying it like a retard. Plus, english people pronounce words funny.

The pronunciation fron sonic 1 is correct because it comes directly fron the company. That shit was programmed by sega themselves.
>>
>>3905139

>Australia

Great evidence.
>>
>>3905168
Australian. Not english, sorry. But that only strengthens my argument, australians dont know how to say anything fucking right
>>
>>3905172
Thats what im saying! Half the works they use arent even fucking english.
>>
>>3905164
>>3905165
I think the official pronunciation is Duh-rye-us.
>>
>>3905168
It's pronounced as the middle English word meaning sea spear, which is a common surname in Australia.
>>
>>3905180
Like durry, as in cigarette?
>>
>>3905182
Dude. If im from america and my name is jesus and i go to mexico, my name doesnt automatically become hey-soos as soon as i get there. Its still jesus.

Just because an entire contry of people dont know how to speak and say my name properly doesnt automatically make it acceptable to do so
>>
>>3905190
That's a very modern way of looking at it. When we didn't communicate so freely we used to translate their names into our language. Hence, why we don't call Germany Deutschland.
>>
>>3905197
I guess. I figure if germany made media officially refering to themselves as Deutschland to other contries(press release style) then wed adopt the name they prefered.

Im not trying to be a dick here, i just really dont understand the confusion when in games for the system sega is pronounced. Meaning the original company accepted pronunciation of the name in that manner and then went on to code it into multiple software to run on said system
>>

>I guess. I figure if germany made media officially refering to themselves as Deutschland to other contries(press release style) then wed adopt the name they prefered.
No, we wouldn't. We haven't done it since 1871 because there was no reason to and multiple reasons not to. Every country refers to others in their own language.

When we had been saying it our way since before the Mega Drive existed. Are you going to stop saying "sodder" instead of solder and "aloominum" instead of aluminium even though you know they're wrong?
>>
Buttfuck

it rhymes with mega

Saygar Maygar Drive.

>Americans
>adding R's where they aren't needed
Nice projection, britcuck.
>>
>>3904474
Its like when they would say Barrack Obammer or Porscher
>>
>>3905424
>>3906197
Be more specific. There isn't one American accent, and I don't know what location does this.
>>
>>3904363
This
>>
seg-a (English, USA)
say-ga (English. UK)
see-ga (English Pre-videogames)
セガ (日本語)
>>
>>3904474
Northern English clocking in, we pronounce it Say-geh
>>
>>3906281
>see-ga (English Pre-videogames)

Just like how before videogames people said MEEEgah?
>>
>>3906230
What a daft thing to say. No country has just one pure accent, m8. Suppose you think Tasmanians sound the same as Queenslanders? No, Burgerworld isn't special in that regard. That said, whether you're from Texas or New York you still sound American. There is still an 'American accent', dispite all its variations.
If you're gonna deny that then you'll have to give up on the idea of there being 'British' (seriously the British Isles have more accent variations than the entire USA) and Australian accents too.
>>
>>3904381
Is the joke that British people mimic the startup sound when they say it?
>>
As an American, always thought it was funny how Damon Albarn pronounced Sega. Clip related starting at 0:13.
