Pronunciation of Handles

[haiiro]

Technically, it's pronounced "high-ee-roe," with the first and second syllables kind of blending together. I usually shorten it to just "high-roe," and I'll answer to either.

If you like, you can hear it as a .wav file here: http://japaneseculture.about.com/bl_colors.htm (it's a little ways down the page).

 

[haiiro]

ogre with a p in front.

But is that "poh-gur" or pea-oh-gur," or something else entirely?
