It's glaring when written, but they sound nearly identical to me when spoken. Malaproprisms are infinitely worse, especially from the people who use them intentionally just to troll. --- Boom!

[LFAQs-redacted-quote] Why do people choose which Japanese words to pronounce correctly and which to bastardize into "English"? Like you can say the "Ka" in Kaiba properly but suddenly it changes for karaoke? Japanese is one of the easiest languages to learn because for the most part, syllables only have one way of pronouncing them. "Ka" is always pronounced like the "ca" in car. The R sounds are somewhat difficult to explain via writing since you have to make contact with the the top of your mouth with your tongue. But "Ra" is always pronounced like the first syllable of ramen (assuming you can at least pronounce that correctly, and not call it ray-men or something). "O" is always pronounced "Oh". And "Ke" is always pronounced like the "Ke" in the name Ken. Whereas in English we have shit like Mercedes and Australia; where they both have 3 of the same vowel, with each being pronounced differently every time. --- ( ^_^)/\(^_^ ) Maya High-Five! ...

Rharyx211 posted... ?Ni is pronounced like the body part knee. So it's "ah-knee-meh". But hell, even I don't bother with that. It's like how probably 99.99% of the people outside Japan don't realize that Mt. Fuji isn't pronounced foo-gee. But that's whole 'nother can of worms and is even more complicated to explain. But like with the English anime, it's just a reason that I just go with the simpler foo-gee; it's not too much of a miss, and it's easier to say. --- ( ^_^)/\(^_^ ) Maya High-Five! ...
