How Do You Pronounce GNamer?

Subject: How Do You Pronounce GNamer? Mon 25 Mar 2013 - 16:03

It's just occurred to me that the current tagline (which for posterity is "The Year Of LuiGiNamer") works much better if you pronounce GNamer as "Gee-Namer". Do you, though?

It's Gee-Namer for me!

Subject: Re: How Do You Pronounce GNamer? Mon 25 Mar 2013 - 17:51

Gee-Namer. I pronounced NGamer as Enn-Gamer, so the pronunciation tradition lives on.

"Guh-naymer"

Subject: Re: How Do You Pronounce GNamer? Mon 25 Mar 2013 - 20:18

Just assume the apostrophe is a schwa.

Subject: Re: How Do You Pronounce GNamer? Mon 25 Mar 2013 - 21:50

Guh-Namer for me. Reminds me of Gnawty the beaver from Donkey Kong... even though that's pronounced with a silent G.

Gee-Namer

Subject: Re: How Do You Pronounce GNamer? Mon 25 Mar 2013 - 22:14

I used to say G'Namer until I realised on a train - it was Enn Gamer, so this dear site should be pronounced Gee Namer. So that is how it goes down.

Namer

Since there is no dash the G is silent for me.

G'Namer for me

I hope that was what you were going for. Laughing

Gee Namer as NGamer was Enn Gamer.

Or gh-namér.

Subject: Re: How Do You Pronounce GNamer? Thu 28 Mar 2013 - 2:22

Using Jaster Logic, NGamer was called 'Gamer' Razz

On this subject, will newbies think the forum is called 'Namer'? Look at the newish logo for the forum, there's no 'G' that stands out - just throwing that out there...

What a castard!

Nah they'll only miss that if they don't have eyes as the forums section header clearly says GNamer.

Anyhow, Stu chose the name so if we aren't saying it like him then we're all wrong. Laughing

They'll learn. Anyway, I think the G in the bottom left is pretty obvious - "GNnamer" seems a more likely mistake.

NEVER! *yells* IT'S PRONOUNCED NAMER *straps on rollerblades* *starts rollerblading* you can't stop me it's Easter.

People, it's evidently GEH-namer!

Subject: Re: How Do You Pronounce GNamer? Sun 31 Mar 2013 - 23:25

Anyone ever had Gnocchi to eat?

Apparently, it is pronounced Nok-ee.

Using Italian cuisine as my proof, I agree with Jaster!
