MERGED: How do you say the site name? / What's with Eeee Ennn World?

[Morrus]

I don't care if I'm "wrong", I call it "N-World" for ease of use. It rolls off the tongue marginally easier than pronouncing the "Eee Ennn" separately.

Understandable. For the record, I find it easier to refer to you as "eeeeeeeeeee" rather than "Elephant". Fewer syllables for me to pronounce.

I tend to transpose certain letters so it's N E (any) World to me!

I like the way you think!

Eeee Ennn World.

And, by the way, it rhymes with "bow."

You know, i saw that and immediately thought 'Neutral Evil World".

And I pronounce it Eeee Ennn World.

I just saw that the site name on my browser border has been changed. LOL

I have a friend who pronounces Gencon as "ghen con" as in ghengis khan, not Gen as in generation (or geneva). It's a bit like fingernails on a chalkboard to me so I can see where Ennnworld would be similar.

Heh. I always pronounce it like Jengis Khan. Considering that the alternate transliteration most commonly seen is Chingis Khan, I figured that that's much more likely.

The dictionary lists both as valid for English. I haven't yet looked up what it would actually be in Mongolian, but that's the kind of linguistics nerdy thing I would do.

In this a great debate rages between those who know the truth of the E.N. World, and those heretics who would decry it as En World. The powers that be have clearly taken their stance on the side of truth, justice and apple pie!

And extra syllables!

Morrus should have changed it to: Eeee Ennn Wuuurld

Oh, great. Now more dumb ogres will be visiting this site.
