ILX2 NEW USERNAME TRANSLATOR COMPENDIUM

i see darragh and i initially would think it was one of those scot/irish DAH-RHOOOOGH kinda pronunciations.

my mom once told me that had i been a girl she might have named me kim : /

I think of Kelly as a surname tbh.

i know a few kellys but no kelly kellys

I keep wanting to spell it kellies

does darragh rhyme with farrah or lara? i've always, i think wrongly, rhymed it with farrah.

i would genuinely need to know how you pronounced each of those names before i answered that.

Farrah = first a is short, as in 'parrot'.
Lara = first a is long, as in 'car'.

I think.

if farrah as in fawcett then ya

lara is p much the same tho ime, tho i do know a lara and as it's been explained to me you don't say 'lara' and it's not quite 'laura' and for god's sake stop saying 'lorra' so i eventually stopped referring to the girl at all, which was a pity because she was wildly interesting and devilishly attractive.

i think our accents are showing, emily!

How'd you pronounce par, or carrot?!

yes, like farrah fawcett is how i pronounce it.

then we have no quarraghel

i pronounce it DURRRRR-a-mac

I'm so confused trying to remember the various names in question, but as far as "darragh," 1. I didn't realize that was your real name until I saw you on FB and then 2. I thought it was an Irish spelling of "Derrick" (prounounced "DARE-reg") and 3. I have never heard of Dara. And 4. "Farrah" and "Lara" are pronounced the same IMO.

Which brings us full circle to this morning on ChiLX and this amazing YT series

both my kids are in love with the pronunciation guide. they actually remember all the phony words! rufus even wrote a song using the fake names.

haha i love that shit

There are 174 videos in that series and most of them that I remember are funny. A couple are the too-obvious American trying to pronounce a French word thing, usually w/ a hick accent. Brontupisto is amazing, however.

and scott, your kids sound like awesome people

the 'real' acct can be just as funny

ive always thought of it as being the farrah pronounciation

of course that prob stems from when ilx mods used to have to use voice recognition software to ban people from "the church"

i pronounce jjjusten to rhyme with 'stunt' fyi, how'm i doin?

cunning

*goth clap*

Brontupisto is amazing, however.

now I am extra glad I didn't ask "Orbit? Is that you?"

Yeah, I've been using "in orbit" for some junk email addresses for 12+ years, I forgot there'd been another poster with almost that name.

*plop*

Sorry, that's a stupid ilx meme. I wasn't even around when orbit was here, I don't think.

This is the first username I've felt comfortable with ever. And yeah, it was supposed to have that extra facility to it, like ik,r's. Also felt inspired a little by some dude and the late great, just in terms of how generic theirs feel.
