Huked on Fonics Werkt Fer ME! A challenge

I don’t know if anyone has ever attempted this or not. I thought I’d see what happened if I tried to get this going.

The challenge: Dopers with odd, bizarre, and non-pronouncable usernames, must attempt to phonetically post out their names, so us other Dopers can pronounce them.

A Few Real Examples:
Punoqllads, Tyklfe, Kvallulf, KKBattousai, inoci, etc

So, Dopers with odd usernames, give it a shot! You know who you are.

If anyone else wants to know how to say someone’s unpronouncable username, challenge them here!

Eye-amm p’n-hah.

Does that work for you?

Here’s another baffler:

Evnglion

I pronounce that one “Evangelion”, myself.

MagicalSilverKey always threw me off.
:confused:
how on earth do you pronounce that one?
:smiley:

“Drag-wer”
Not that my username is terribly hard to pronounce, but it commonly is mispronounced. Most people pronounce it either, “Drag-wear” or “Drag-waar”.

I don’t think I have ever heard an official pronunciation of my handle (which is a Sanrio character), but I’ve always said it pretty much how it’s spelled - ‘Badtz’ is one syllable, like ‘bats’ but with a bit of a ‘d’ sound before the t. The A in ‘Maru’ is pronounced as that character used in dictionaries that looks like an upside down e, like the O in ‘Mother’, and the ‘U’ is pronounced ‘Ooh!’ as in ‘Ooh, what a handsome penguin you are!’.

That would be the schwa! Long live the schwa!

Mine is pronounced “Peanut butter and yam sandwich.”

I wanna see people try and guess first. :smiley:

Bound to happen, as it takes over every vowel in American English. Except it has no ASCII code. I guess that screws us going phonetic anytime soon.

I always pronounce your name without the first M. Sort of like mnemonic. Ne-menth.

jay arr eight or gyrate – your choice.

I always have trouble scanning canthearya

…can the arya?

…canth earya?

…can thea rya?

D’oh! “Can’t hear ya!”

Eventually it sinks in. :slight_smile:

Dow… (as in Jones) **…Nah ** (as in “I couldnt be bothered”)

Mnementh

M & M &th

Badger

Ladies, gentlemen, and others, we have a winner.

And well… Walter? I think you’re gonna have to tell me how to pronounce “M & M &th”. I cant figure it out!

ahem

Lest any of y’uns out there be cultured, it’s “MOY,” not “mWAH.”

Why? (Or, rather, qu’est-ce que c’est?)

I’m not tellin’. :stuck_out_tongue:

[sub]It’s not a big deal, really.
I just was lookin’ for an excuse to use that tongue smiley.
No hurt feelin’s, m’kay?[/sub]

sk8rixtx

coo-NEE-loo

There, not that hard, is it?

And for those who pronounce it cunni as in. . . well, you get the idea – REAL DAMN FUNNY!

For the schwa-disant:
