Just curious, how do you say your tech spells?

[tAKt]

I was just curious how you say your tech spells i.e Gi/Ra techs. I usualy say my gi stuff, Gee-bar-tuh or Gee-dig-uh and with ra stuff I say it like Raw-fi-oh or Ram-e-gid... Anyway was bored and just wanted to see how you guys say it.

[Wiz]

Foy (rhymes with "toy")
Bar-tuh
Zon-day
Dig-uh
Meh-gid

Ruh-
Gi- (like 'i' in 'lint')
Dam-

So, I say Ruh-bar-tuh for Rabarta, Gi-zon-day for Gizonde, etc.

[Chuck_Norris]

Fo-E
Bar-tuh
Zon-Dee
Dig-A
Meh-gid
Rest-ah
Rah-bar-tuh
Gi (rhymes with eye)
Dam
Nos (Rhymes with toast)

Think I got them all.

[RAGNAGELPPOD]

Foie= Fwoie ( I throw a W in there for some reason)
Barta= Bar-taa ( sounds like sparta with a B, and if you hold the "aa" part the freeze effect sticks better)
Zonde= Zawn (rhymes with dawn) Deee
Diga= Die Gah
Megid= Meg (peter griffins daughter from family guy) Id (associated with ego and superego for all you psychology nuts)
Resta= rest uh

Ra= Raa (like form that cartoon, mummies alive "with the strength of raa!"
Gi= Sounds like Gib as in "gib rares". Turns to "jizz" for gizonde though, as in "I jizzed all over her"
Dam= the thing that beavers make.

[Fanin]

In writing I spell them out as they are, but when it comes to pronunciation, I don't really say them, for some I call them by their looks.

foie - fireball
rafoie - explosion

diga - rock
radiga - meteor
gidiga - earthquake

zonde - thundershock
razonde - lightning
gizonde - thunder

megid - purple ball of death

etc.

[Cathbar]

Foie (Rhymes with "Toy")
Bar-tuh
Zonde (Rhymes with "Pond")
Dig-uh
Meh-gid
Rest-uh
Ruh-(Enter tech name here)
Dam-(Enter tech name here)
Gi-(As in "Give", minus the "ve")

[Kanore]

Reh-te-ay

[darthplagis]

grantz- gran-tz (gran as in grand tz as in a few languages, said as s like greek Tzatziki or cucumber sauce to USA)

[Gryffin]

Geh/Guh
Nos (Ghos--t)
Dam

I LIKE THIS GAME.

[Shou]

Hey! i pronounce diga the same way! (Dee-gah) i know that it is wrong lol but hey. It's probably dig-uh

[ThEoRy]

this again? ugh! http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

I may (may) search around the forums and see if I can find the other lengthy threads which covered this topic to death. Just for the ops reference of course.

[ketson]

Foie = Foi(starting like foil)-e
Bar-tuh
Zon-duh (end is more like *de* from the french language)
Die-gah
Rest-ta
Megid = Midget (sounds almost exactly like it, the t sounds more like D though)

[Libram]

I pretty much follow what most people have posted, but I have an exception.

Gidiga

Guy-dee-ga

Every other time the Gi- is the "give without the -ve". I don't know why I feel Gidiga should be pronounced that way.

[Weeaboolits]

I just use the proper pronunciations, they aren't that hard.

[Arika]

follow jp pronounce way, since it is JP game after all
fo-i-e
di-ga
no-su-di-ga
ME-GI-DO!!!! (lol, I like Magashi voice when he say this!)

[Atomic646]

Foe-e
Bart-a
Zon-duh
Dig-ah
ma-jid-megid
ree-grant
DAMN-______________
Nos-__________________
Raw-_______________
gee-____________
rest-ah - resta
reverser(simple)

[stukasa]

It's weird, I pronounce different Gi-techs differently.

Ji-zond (ji like in "Jim")
Ji-barta (same as above)

Gi-fo-ee (gi like in "gift")
Gi-dig-uh (same as above)

I know how to pronounce them the Japanese way but somehow it sounds better to me pronouncing them that way. Hmm...

[Tetsaru]

Lol, you people have it all wrong. :3

Foie = Fooie. As in, "Aw, phooey."
Barta = THIS IS BARTAAAAAAAAAA!!!
Zonde = Boogers or Silly String, cuz that's what it looks like to me at low level >_<
Diga = Sling Poo at lower levels, Meteor at higher levels
Megid = ...well, it's just Megid. It has a bad enough reputation to not need a new name. :3
Regrants = Seizures
Shifta/Deband/Zodial/Retier = Steroids (or buffs, lol)

As for prefixes:

Ra- = Rawr
Gi- = Gib
Dam- = DAMMIT >_<
Nos- = Ohnoes

Thus, you come up with Rawrfooie, Ohnoesmegid, DAMMITBARTAAAAA, Giboogers, and the like. As you can see, I have too much fun coming up with names like this. =P

[darkante]

Foie: Fo-oy
Barta: Bar-tah
Zonde: Zond
Diga: Dig-ah
Megid: Meh-gid

Shifta: Shiff-tah
Deband: Teh-baand
Zodial: Zo-di-al
Retier: Ret-i-air
Jellen: Yell-an
Zalure: Zah-lure

And other things.

Gi: Gie
Dam: Damn
Ra: Rah
Nos: Noos
Resta: Rest-dahh

[landman]

Since I speak Spanish I just read them with that pronunciation since it is the same for Japanese, but since I don't know if Sega made a good romanization of the Japanese names I don't know if that is the correct pronunciation or not.

So I say: Fo-ie, Zon-de, Di-ga... (with spanish-japanese pronunciation where a = a, e = e, i = i, etcetera)

Like this except for:

Ra = Rah (as in Amun-Ra).

[Criss]

Since french is actually my first language, I tend to pronounce most tech names with a french accent. Especially Foie (which literally means "liver" btw). XD

So shooting livers at kamatozes can be quite entertaining. :3

[Almeho]

Foie - Foe + ee
Barta - Bar + tuh
Zonde - Zon (Rhymes with Gon - if you played Tekken 3 http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime2.gif) + day
Shifta - Shif + tuh
Deband - Da + band (lol)
Zalure - Zuh + lure
Retier - Ret + tee + eh
Diga - Dee + guh
Megid - Meg + id (like saying "it" just exchange the "t" for a "d")

Ra - Rah
Dam - Self-explanetory http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime2.gif
Gi - Gee (Like saying "Geese", for example)
Nos - Like saying the beginning of "Austrailian" with an "n" added on (I tried my best to explain http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime2.gif)

I laughed at myself while typing this...XD

[ChaoStrike777]

I read the name of the spell, and before i know it I just said the name of that spell, Unless the spell's name is Ahiggaskridlseis or something completely off the wall then I name it by what it looks like.

[chaoskila]

zOn DEE
only technick i got so....

[Yusaku_Kudou]

Well, I played PSOX in Japanese, so I'm a cheater.

I say "fo-E-eh" foie

megid "meh-gEEd" (soft g)

zonde (zon deh)

The only thing that really grinds me is when people mispronounce Ninja Gaiden, Sange, and Nei.

"Gah-E-den"

"San-geh" (g- always soft in Japanese, soft!!)

"Neh-E"

[Zarode]

Foie: Fo-eh
Barta: Bar-tah
Zonde- Zon-day
Megid: Meh-gid
Grants: Grants, literally

Ra-tech: Ra-tech. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif
Same with Dam- techs.

Shifta: Shif-ta
Deband: De-b&
Zodial: Zo-dial
Retier: Re-tard-ade :| (re-tier)

Megistar: Meh-gi-star
Megiverse: Meh-gi-verse

Resta: Res-ta
Reverser: Seriously now...
Giresta: Gee-res-ta
Regrants: Re-gr-ants

Most of this stuff is fairly simple. I don't know why you guys make this harder then it should be. ;/

Oops, I forgot the bestest spell ever.

Diga: Dee-guh

<font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: Zarode on 2008-05-17 13:23 ]</font>

[burninglink5]

Dig-uh
zawn-day
bahr-taa

Foie: Foy
Rafoie: Rah-foy
Gifoie: Gee-foy
Damfoie: Dam (as in damn)- foy
Shifta: Shift-ah
Jellen: Jel-en

Ramegid: Rah-meh-jid
Dammegid: Dam-meh-jid
Nosmegid: Nos-meh-jid
Megiverse: Meh-ji-verse
Megistar: Meh-ji-star

Sange is one that throws me off. I've heard some people say it as 'San-gay' and others as 'Sanje'.
