*feels left out* -- nm - tRuMaN Aug 11, 12:49 1
- "mon-key." -- nm - JaxSean Aug 11, 12:51
It's not ah-MOCKS-ee? -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Aug 11, 12:48
Correct on mine. b! called me tee-woo-gee, which is funny and I'll answer to it, but "twug" rhyming with "rug" is correct. -- nm - TWuG Aug 11, 12:46
Because i pronouce Andrea like "Ondray-ah" i want to be call "onnnn-dee". - Andie Aug 11, 12:44 43
- damn your IM -- nm - zork Aug 11, 13:04
- for a moment I felt that I really sucked for not knowing the right pronunciation -- nm - Max Aug 11, 12:48
- Hmm. Well, make it work, Ondee -- nm - Tim Gunn Aug 11, 12:46
- "Mara" is short for "Marilyn" so the As have to be pronounced the same. -- nm - mara Aug 11, 12:45 39
  - I'm asking samara for a second opinion -- nm - Roger More Aug 11, 12:51
  - oh, Mare-ah actually makes sense to me. (rhymes with Sarah.) - Andie Aug 11, 12:47 35
    - In what world does MARE-ah ryhme with Sarah? (nM) - musubi, pronounciation guide Aug 11, 12:47 31
      - You don't pronounce "mare" like the first syllable of Sara? -- nm - mara Aug 11, 12:52 1
        
        nope -- nm - TFox Aug 11, 12:55
      - Mare? Like a horse? Saire-ah. Maire-ah. Like Claire. -- nm - JaxSean Aug 11, 12:50 10
        
        This. (nm) - musubi, pronounciation guide Aug 11, 12:55 9
        
        Which contradicts your own post. -- nm - mara Aug 11, 12:56
        
        riiiight. but that's what you are arguing against. -- nm - Andie Aug 11, 12:56 7
        
        No, I'm saying Mare is wrong, *because* it rhymes with Claire. (nm) - musubi, pronounciation guide Aug 11, 12:58 6
        
        Which is not what Jax is saying. -- nm - mara Aug 11, 13:00 5
        
        I pronounce mare (horse) like Claire. - JaxSean Aug 11, 13:03 1
        
        bah. disregard the IM. - JaxSean Aug 11, 13:04
        
        Taken in conjuction with this post, I think that is what he's saying. (link) - musubi, pronounciation guide Aug 11, 13:02 [Backboard] 2
        
        are you argueing that Mara is 'mah-rah' or that Mare-ah doesn't rhyme with Sarah? Two different points. - Andie Aug 11, 13:03 1
        
        Both! - musubi, pronounciation guide Aug 11, 13:04
      - Seems like a softer "a" to me. Regardless, because it's still "mah-rah". (nm) - musubi, pronounciation guide Aug 11, 12:50
      - how on EARTH do you say "sarah." -- nm - Andie Aug 11, 12:49 15
        
        Sah-rah. Mare has the long a sound. (nm) - musubi, pronounciation guide Aug 11, 12:52 14
        
        Wait. That's not right either, it's not "Sah-rah", but it's not "Mare-ah" either. (nm) - musubi, pronounciation guide Aug 11, 12:54 1
        
        I think we've discovered the root of your spelling problems. -- nm - TWuG Aug 11, 12:56
        
        yes, and that's how normal people say Sarah. -- nm - Andie Aug 11, 12:54 11
        
        mare = long a, like "say" or "bay". The "sar" in Sarah has an shorter "a" sound, like "map" or "bat". (nm) - musubi, pronounciation guide Aug 11, 12:57 10
        
        For example a nightMARE, does not have the Sarah sound. (nm) - musubi, pronounciation guide Aug 11, 13:00 7
        
        You've just blown any pronunciation cred you had. Totally gone. -- nm - mara Aug 11, 13:05
        
        Wow. It *so* does the way I've always heard both pronounced. -- nm - TWuG Aug 11, 13:03
        
        but see, it does. -- nm - Andie Aug 11, 13:01 4
        
        You pronounce "Sarah" as "SAY-rah"? (nm) - musubi, pronounciation guide Aug 11, 13:03 3
        
        Nobody said it was like "say." We said it was like "mare." -- nm - mara Aug 11, 13:07
        
        No, both rhyme with dare or pair or care or fair or fare. -- nm - TWuG Aug 11, 13:06
        
        not SAY-ra, but Sare-ah. it's still a long A sound. (sare rhymes with mare, air, fair.) -- nm - Andie Aug 11, 13:04
        
        I've never heard it pronounced that way. I'm not even sure I *can* pronounce it that way. -- nm - mara Aug 11, 12:58
        
        maybe in your world. -- nm - Andie Aug 11, 12:58
      - Earth. -- nm - Don Homer Aug 11, 12:48
    - that's how I've always pronounced it. -- nm - Callisto Aug 11, 12:47 1
      - right. -- nm - Don Homer Aug 11, 12:48
    - everyone is taking crazy pills. -- nm - TFox Aug 11, 12:47
  - right. mah-rah. -- nm - TFox Aug 11, 12:47
  - No. You're mar, like bar, -a. - JaxSean Aug 11, 12:47
and of course, MOO-subby -- nm - Beryllium Aug 11, 12:44 1
- moo sue bee. Which sounds like a cow taking an insect to court. -- nm - TWuG Aug 11, 12:47
Also: "POOM-bah" (pmb) "madj" (mandy nee-maj) (nm) - musubi, pronounciation guide Aug 11, 12:43

if it didn't look enough like a chick's name, "REE-gen" isn't going to help the matter. -- nm - TFox Aug 11, 12:41 2
- REE. REE. REE. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 11, 12:41 1
  - *stabs Janet Leigh in the shower* -- nm - Anthony Perkins Aug 11, 12:42
