how do u say a HOOS

Re: Louis

I'd guess that that Americans who learned about the name as pronounced by Mr. Jagger first read it as "Louie" (as in Huey, Dewey, and Louie).

Also, King Louie from the Jungle Book.

god damn, you people will just post about fucking nothing sometimes huh

New board descrip pls.

i actually hear it as 'mister kway' which is probably wrong on several levels but oi who's keeping score

In my Britisher town there is a tapas bar called Que Pasa, and whenever I am on a bus which goes past it there are inevitably Spanish people on the bus who point at it and say "Kway Pasa!" and laugh hysterically, leaving me wondering if the "kway" is a hilarious mockery of English accents or is actually some feature of the Spanish language I was previously unaware of

but I guess it is the former really otherwise the humour is lost on me too

"Q" and "Hooss" (or if you will "Huice"), anyway

why someone would spell something que but pronounce it q is a strange and troubling question to me.

Hell why spell anyway!

WHOSE

i thought it was big hoss until this thread, tbh.

It never ocurred to me that anyone would do anyting other than sound out the letters tbh.

you also probably assume i don't have to go 'little star big star' four times before even getting that far.

ha

waiting for some smartass to tell me how to pronounce that next.

sometimes i read your name "da ragmac"

that's correct. it's my rapper name.

dare ag* mack?

*as in aggro or agriculture

the 'mac' is silent, it's irish

dara (like "dahhhra" which I'm guessing is your first name and then Mac)

yep

the mac isn't really silent, btw.

haha i believed you for 30 seconds and was thinking of all the macs in my family and wondering why they would have started pronouncing them after they got of the boat or something ^_^

that was pretty irresponsible of me, i apologise to those who are learning irish :(

I pronounce harbl "harbl"

Harbl like marble

i say "cat barf"

^_^

Sometimes I say "horrible" but that's as saucy as I get.

i always assumed a variation of 'horrible' with maybe a southern US accent tbh.

I rhyme it with Marble. OMG why do I keep reading and posting on this thread! This is like the most uninteresting shit ever and yet I can't stop. gah.

Sip the Hoos cuz I got enough to go around,
And the thought takes place Uptown
I grew up on the sidewalk where I learned street talk,
And then taught to hawk New York-
I go to Queens for queens to get the crew from Brooklyn,
Make money in Manhattan and never been tooken,
Go Uptown and the Bronx to boogie down,
Get strong on the Island, recoup, and lay around.
Time to build my Hoos back up-
Props back up, suckers get smacked up

How do you say Geir? 'Gear', 'Guyer' or 'Gayer'?

as long as you say it with a bit of rythym

Since it's supposed to be short for "Hoosteen", I say it the proper way, i.e. "haws".

explain?

In countries were Hoosteen is a common name the "Hoos" part is pronounced "haws", or something close to it. Certainly not "h-ews" or "h-uice".
