Even though Bob-omb isn't a hard name to pronounce I say Bomb-omb instead.

 

[New Super Mario]

Even though Bob-omb isn't a hard name to pronounce I say Bomb-omb instead.

Same. Really, both I think are considered right.

 

[Magikrazy]

How do youse guys pronounce Arceus?

AR-see-us?
ar-SAY-us?
ARK-ee-us?

 

[ralphfan]

I always pronounce it KAY-mek.

 

[Tyrell Badd]

For the longest time, I misread Palkia as Pakila and pronounced it Pah-KEE-la (like tequila).

I also pronounced Giratina with a J sound instead of a hard G.

Any of the super mario land bosses,

[YoshiGo99]

I hear some people say Whomp and Thwomp differently and same with Wario, some say Worio, they say it with an O

 

[Magikrazy]

I had the same problem as Gamefreak, except with Lakitu. I misspelled it as Latiku (and pronounced it LAT-i-koo. I now pronounce it LAK-it-oo).

 

[NSY]

I used to pronounce Lakitu Lan-Kee and it's no joke at all.

 

[Magikrazy]

Lan-Kee-Too?

 

[Dry-Petey]

Ar-key-us
Zwee-luss

TSVAI

How do you pronunce that?

 

[Magikrazy]

Ar-key-us
Zwee-luss

TSVAI

How do you pronunce that?

First, I think "If I was German, how would I pronounce this word?". I then clear my mind of all that isn't about pronunciation, fine dining, and breathing. I open my mouth, expand my vocal cords, and say "TSVAI-luss".

In other words, it's German.

 

[New Super Mario]

I always pronounce it KAY-mek.

For Kamek? I am more for "KA MEK" my self.

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

Arceus: Ark-ee-us.

 

[Weasel]

When someone says "Ninja Gay-den", I want to smack them.

[Magikrazy]

Yes.

I say BONZ-lee instead of BON-slai.

 

[Toad Eightyfive]

I hate it when people say "Mair-io." And thanks to my new home town, I hear it a fucking lot.

IT'S ITALIAN. IT'S PRONOUNCED "MAHR-IO," NOT "MAIR-IO."

I hate it when people say "Mair-io." And thanks to my new home town, I hear it a *bleep*ing lot.

IT'S ITALIAN. IT'S PRONOUNCED "MAHR-IO," NOT "MAIR-IO."

[/slightrant]

^I hate it when people pronounce "marionette" "Mair-ee-oh-nette" and "Marion" "Mary-on". It's so inconsistent with "Mario".

At least the French pronounces "marionette" correctly.

 

[Lily x]

That's how I say it :/

Yes.

I say BONZ-lee instead of BON-slai.

My brother got me into the habit!!! He calls it that because that way it sounds like him name.

I pronounce Mario MaH-rio

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

I call "Raichu" "Ray-chu". I think I can blame the anime for that.
