In Japanese, yeah, though in English I'm pretty sure that dee-dee-dee is acceptable and even how the Smash Bros announcer says it in English. Also, fun fact, DeDeDe's name makes more sense when you you know that Kirbys original name was PoPoPo.
>>
No, it's Dedede. Not Daydayday or Deedeedee.

It's just "dedede", as in the "de" in "dedede", the "de" in "dedede" and then the "de" in "dedede".
>>
>>4156146
Deh, not day. Otherwise it would be deideidei.

Can't you give pronunciation in a phonetic alphabet instead of being ambiguous?

Americans always add a diphthong when they pronounce a vowel. Americans are seemingly unable to hear this diphthong, because whenever you correct them, they'll claim that it's the same as what they said.

anglos butcher the latin alphabet everyday. I'm pretty sure in languages derived from latin like portuguese, spanish, romanian and italian people pronounce A E I O U like they would be
A - cAr
E - gEt
I - bIt
O - bOss
U - can't find an example

so yeah, you guys hsould do like the russians and come up with your own alphabet. I heard you once used viking runes, go for it.

fun fact, English used to have their own letters, like thorn: Þ þ and eth: Ð ð, which you can find in current day Nothern European languages, but apparently between the Norman conquest and the invention of the printing press they died.
As for that vowel autism, I think every foreign language, Latin, Anglo-Saxon, Old Norse and Medieval French is to blame as one never completely eliminated the other, so they now pronounce some words as Saxons and others as Frenchies. If current French already has idiotic vowels I cannot imagine it a thousand years ago.

Well they aren't abbreviations, so yes they are acronyms.

Here's one for my CRT bros. WEGA is pronounced VEGA cause it's from a Germany company called...Wega. It's one of the first things in any Sony WEGA's manual.

I had been calling them chock-o-bos all my life until FFX came out. Apparently it's actually pronounced choke-o-bo. How the fuck does that make any sense.

"OAK-a-reena" is correct, an ocarina is an instrument dating back to the earliest civilizations, not Japanese. Though I still call it OCK-a-reena.

>>4158942
It makes sense when you understand later on that these names are made by Japanese people, so they use the phoneme system they have instead of ours.

But you also have times where they choose an English or Western word and then try to replicate it with Japanese phonemes, like Cloud (Kuraodo) and Zidane (Jitan).

>>4159446
The name is Italian and from the 19th century.
