whew!just finished reading the whole thread...

learned a lot lalo na sa brand names din...

ask ko lang [textspeak!] WI-FI, should it be pronounced as wai fai or wai fee??? It comes from the words wireless fidelity so ang argument ng IT namin is, it should be pronounced as wai fee???

confused...

thanks for the correct pronunciation of worcestershire..natuwa [textspeak!] ako dun

I made the same argument here. Wi-fee should be the correct pronounciation. Wireless FIdelity!!!

^ really? wow! Maybe nakasanayan na siguro ng tao. But how about sci-fi? Should it be sci-fee (science fiction)

Diba? Perhaps WI-FI as "wai-fai" sounds better such as sci-fi "sai-fai"

hmmm.....

What is the correct pronunciation po for "genuine" and "behind"?

For behind, is it bih-hahynd? or bah-hahynd?
And for genuine, is jen-yoo-in or jen-yoo-wahyn?

coffee lovers:

Cafe' au lait - ka-FAY-O-LAY

correct me if i'm wrong.

It's ka-fay-o-leh. hindi parehong long A. may accent kasi un e sa french na café kaya nagiging 'ey' tapos un ai is pronounced 'eh'.
