Jasujo = Ja-SOO-joh

Easy enough.

Runevalkyrie - roon-val-kir-E

Caesara · #33 Post by **Caesara** » Fri Jun 04, 2004 8:13 am

Say-Zar-Uh = Caesara

Say = Cae

That's how I pronouce it. If you MUST, you can do it the roman way, but that's IT.

See-Zar-Uh

See

Not much of a difference, but oh well. As for my real name.. Somebody already put it, with a different spelling though..

Dar-see = Darcie

My name is easy, but it's a pain to spell.

AM-EH-THIST

Apparently tons of people have problems with my RL name. No one can decide if it's two syllables or one. I haven't said it in years, so I'm not sure.

Julia: Jule-Ee-Yah or Jule-Yah

Either way, I don't care

Com-man-der Swiss

Can't break it down any more than that.

Pretty hard, huh?

Wouldn't the Roman way be Keye-zar-uh? The Classical Latin pronouncation of Caesar is Keye-zar.

I think she's going with Caesar as in Julius Caesar...

Mine's pretty simple.

Diss-cord-ent Note

That's how I pronounce it anyway. The third syllable might have more of an 'ant' sound to it, but if it's said quickly you can barely tell the difference.

I know. That's what I was going with as well. The popular pronouncation of Caesar is the modern, Anglisised (yes I spelled it way wrong), scientific way. The actual Roman way is Keye-zar. Sometimes inaccuracies really bug me.

Oh, I understand, I take latin ^_^

I just think that when she said 'the roman way' she didn't mean the way the romans would have said it, she meant 'how the name of the Roman is popularly pronounced'.

This is pointless, but I'm not thick

I went by how my teacher pronounced it in class.

Which happens to be see-zar. She was talking about the Romans, so therefore I call it the "Roman way".
