Talk:Non-English Pronunciations

From Homestar Runner Wiki

Thought this merited a page. I'm not sure what category this belongs to, though; had some trouble distinguishing some of the contents of "Lists" from "Running Gags". -- Minivet 02:09, 7 December 2005 (UTC)

Lists are usually long strings of items or names. Running Gags are jokes that are repeated several times throughout toons. — Lapper (talk) 02:11, 7 December 2005 (UTC)

Order

These things really need to be put in chronological order or something. Salty^Talk! 03:31, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

I think they're fine the way they are. You can do it if you want to. — _talk Bubsty _edits 21:44, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

Actually, they're in alphabetical order already. Which makes sense for a list of words. --DorianGray

Ukelele

Actually, the correct Hawaiian prononciation of Ukulele is oo·koo·lay·lay.

the "Yoo·ka·lay·lee" pronounciation is a Americanized mispronounciation that is accepted cause of common use. Marzipan and Strong Sad seem to be the type that would prefer the original "correct" pronounciation.

(there are also spelling variations: Ukulele or Ukelele)

So... should this word be removed from the list? im a new user so i dont wanna anger too many people right away.

Well, I'd merit it a removal, and have been debating it myself. I like the correct pronounciations of things. --DorianGray

A note can be left on the page concerning both pronunciations. — Elcool ^(talk)_(contribs) 20:34, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
