Pronunciation question - w0sh

[Hektik]

Having a very spirited debate on the correct pronunciation of @W0SH09 - time for a good old fashioned poll to decide once and for all

 

[DeletedUser]

remember everyone, if w0sh has an "a" in it. then we will have to start calling h0lly, hally.

think about that

 

[Hektik]

0 doesn't sound like "oo" - you just sound pretentious

 

[DeletedUser]

I'm fine with that.

 

[DeletedUser]

0 indicates an o

how is this even a debate

 

[Hektik]

Yes, and a single 'o' doesn't make 'woosh', it sounds more like 'wash'

 

[DeletedUser121092]

I pronounce it in my head 'Double you, zero, shhhhhh'

 

[DeletedUser]

find one other word that has a single o in it that makes an a sound

 

[DeletedUser]

wot?

 

[Hektik]

Wosh with single o = sounds like wash you silly man

How does o = oo??

 

[DeletedUser]

the 0 indicates a double emphasis on the o, hence why the 0 is twice as big as the o

 

[DeletedUser121092]

I actually think she uses a "0" instead of a "o" so that in your mind you start shouting the name halfway through. so it's got like a woooooOOOOOAAAAHHHHSSSSHHHHHH kinda vibe to it

 

[DeletedUser]

no.

Thats not how this works, you really are making a fool of yourself now

 

[DeletedUser121092]

no.

I need factual information, including visuals, as to why this is the case.

 

[DeletedUser]

Youre the one saying a 0 = a

I need factual information, including visuals, as to why this is the case.

I've stated my case. I can lead a sloth to water, but i can't make it drink.

 

[Hektik]

No, 0 = o = wosh which sounds like wash

I didn't want to SPELL it out for you, but you made me

 

[DeletedUser]

so youre saying the brilliant mind of w0sh chose a 0 instead of an o for no reason?

wow, cam. wow

 

[DeletedUser]

I asked w0sh if she was going to weigh in on her own name, she said my pronunciation was correct.

 

[Hektik]

so youre saying the brilliant mind of w0sh chose a 0 instead of an o for no reason?

wow, cam. wow

No, the 0 you are referring to relates more to you having ZERO clue of how to say things
