In Japanese it's pronounced as Zeruneasu. Thanks for letting me know the Japanese pronunciation is wrong! Boy was I fooled! For 3 years even!

I have nothing to do with Anglos ethnically, and I think you're retarded to think X at the start of a word isn't pronounced Z.

ゼ ル ネ ア ス





>>25933519
Well, that's because you're an uneducated Anglo. But the point still stands. X + vowel = Z + vowel at the start of English words is pretty common knowledge.
>>
>>25933526
I have heard many non-english nationalities speak. Yet to hear any pronounce it Ks, and only one or two borderline illiterate examples using it as Ex- when speaking English.

Their own languages can have special pronunciations which may break the rule.
>>
>>25933461
It can't be helped. If you can't katakana then you have no place in these discussions but if you can you realize that there is no discussion to be had. That's why these threads will never not be retarded.

Name one language that does it then. I've heard some foreigner pronounce it as "eks", but most of those languages never have words starting with x and have no proper way to pronounce such words.

No, I won't. You find it yourself using the search engine named Google.

You have literally nothing.
Chinese have words starting with X, and they are pronounced as "sh".
Other germanic languages like German and Scandinavian countries don't have words starting with x at all, except for a few loanwords that are all pronounced as "z", like their versions of xylophone. Same deal with spic languages.

anyway, to give some trivia

Xerneas sounds suspiciously similar to Cernunnos, the pagan god of hunt and fertility, often depicted as a man with stag horns, or just a stag

Stop embarrassing yourself man. I speak 4 languages, and English is the only one where X = Z. I'm not laying it out on you, so stop trying. Do your own research. Linguistics are very interesting.
>>
>>25933646
>claims to speak 3 non-english languages
>refuses to name a single one

If you have proof, provide it. Otherwise you just look autistic (and a lair.) And remember, if you don't provide any, we can't prove/disprove your shit. So the default becomes you are a faggot.

Do you want to be a faggot? Sure sounds like it.
>>
>>25933646
I speak 3 and all of them have x pronounced as x=z when a word starts with x. In most cases the words are loanwords, and having an x at the start is not natural for the language.
Granted I am not familiar with French, so if they pronounce x at the start of a word as gz or ks you have a point, but that's not the rest of the word.
>>
>>25933600
Alright. Here are some from the top of my head
>Xylophone
>Xenophobic
>Xerox
>Xylem

It's okay bro, it's not like it's a common rule or anything
I still can't pronounce Suicune if it makes you feel any better
>>
Do the rest of the world pronounce 'xenophobic' as 'ksenophobic', rather than 'zenophobic'?
>>
It's an sz sound, z already makes z sound

I'm from Norway and our words for xenophobic and xylophone are "xenofobisk" and "xylofon", pronounced with a "s" due to to the z sound being nearly nonexistent here.
>>
>>25933680

Yes
>>
>>25933422
Ex-zavier. I can never not pronounce it the way X-men do.
>>
>>25933920
How X-men pronounce it is how the name is supposed to be pronounced though. It is a derivative of Javier after all.

>>25933680
In Portugal we pronounce it "Rexnophobic". But Xernias would be pronounced "Zsernias" because of the phonetic of the word being different.
>>
>>25933383
What can you expect from a language that pronounce:

-"tre" as "ter" (centre, theater, metre...)
-"tle" as "tuhl" (little, bottle, title...)
-"tion" as "shun" (nation, direction, caution...)
>>
>>25933383
Yeah, it's ex-zerneas just like how it's ex-zylophone and ex-zerox.

What the fuck is this retardation?
I'm the only that pronounces it like "sh" when it's the first letter, and "ks" in the rest of the cases?
I thought the "ks" was at least normal.

I'm a germanfag and xylophone isn't pronounced with a z
and we do have words starting with X - the x is just seperated by a hyphen from the rest of the word, like x-beinig, x-beliebig, x-fach

Because that's how they're pronounced you illiterate fucking retard. "Tre" would be pronounced "truh". CenTER, meTER, theaTER. And how the fuck else would you pronounce "tle"? "Tluh"? "Lih-tluh"? "Bah-tluh"? Fuck I fucking hate foreigners, your languages are all shit

>>25933920
the only reason they pronounce it as "ex-savier" is because they want to justify the "Professor X" monicker
>>
http://www.acapela-group.com/
>>
>>25935124
That's a bit different though. Since you're supposed to pronounce it like the letter's name, not its sound. Like B-team is pronounced "bee team", not "bteam"

>>25935377
of course it is - I refuted his point, that we don't have words starting with x besides loanwords

>>
>not kuserneasu
>>
>>25934102

In English, words don't ever begin with "ks" or "gz". So we have to either remove one of these consonants or add a vowel before. Kind of like how in Spanish (or español, rather) words cannot begin with "sp", and a native speaker only fluent in that language will have an awkward time doing that.
