Did you... not get the joke?
bold of you to assume that.
Let me explain

So in that comic you can see that the british and A another country in war, probably america? Or you can say english people, white people are at war and as you know, british people spell rumor with an 'U' "Romour" . So the commander was smart, seeing his british spelling tell him that he is a spy.

Its funny because its a stupid joke
I understood the meme,
my reply was adding to how illogical it would sound if you actually label someone as "English" when he uses the spelling that is used outside of the US.
I recall another meme where someone was labelled "Canadian" for using the pronunciation "Zed" instead of "zee"
You dont care about logic in a meme sir

forget foreigners who always pronounce it the wrong way.
similarly, they also commit pronunciation errors with Rakésh राकेश by pronouncing the kesh like mesh when the 'e' is supposed to give off a little softer and longer tone instead(e.g. देश) their pronunciation is more like राकैश in that matter.

It is originally derived from Hindi and the Hindi pronunciation is the only right one.
Julian_Kaiser
also, मेनीश sounds more like American english of pronouncing it.

even the first syllable is wrong, it isn't supposed to align with their pronunciation of master.

I honestly didn't expect it to be this hard. Currently no one got the final word right though. It's very weird TBH.

BTW this is American English.

Oh no the recordings broke so I'll have to renew it.

I feel like Yyotta is capable of speaking better English than most of us here if not all

I think the thing that makes the last word difficult is that its probably an obscure word that native speakers would never use or know about, and sounds alot like a place name, so we just assumed it was that instead of thinking harder. In hindsight it is in switzerland though so not exactly english lmao. Still no idea what it is.

Still no clue what 8 is either

maybe it would help if a better text to speech thing was used?

here is a fun one - how do you pronounce "nuclear"?

cause I head most people pronounce it as "nuke-lear" as in those two conjoined words instead of as one word, which is how I pronounce it.

I think we should know what american accent the tts is if its going to be american, since there are alot of differences in how we pronounce stuff regionally. Big country
