why do people struggle to pronounce an é?
>>26883000
Americans aren't exactly noun for there smarts :-)
>>26883000
It's pronounced to like the "i" in "trick"
>>26883029
this is bait

Either:
A. American/Aussie/sheepshagger and lack education on foreign language
Or
B. Japs, whose language gets weird with transliterations
It sounds weird when Brits pronounce it correctly. It sounds much more natural if we pronounce it as if it were an è.
>>26883087
C. the spelling of "e" in "pocket " isn't the same than an actual "é" and everyone get confused
>>26883051
no it's pronounced "é" because it's a fucking é.
they put an accent there on purpose so people wouldnt pornounce it "ee"
>>26883051
No it's pronounced like the "e" in "meddling".
People who say "Po-kay-mon" sound pretentious. So I say "Pok-uh-mon" like most people.
>>26883109
"uh" is pronounced differently in glorious America.
>>26883107
Screw all of you. I'm going to pronounce it the way the Japanese do, not because it's Japanese, but because it's easier. If you don't like it, come at me.

>Implying I can't
Ayy lmao, that's the advantages of learning different languages at a young age. Been speaking English fluently since I was 7, it is a piss easy language compared to Spanish.
You know what, I don't want to sound like a dumbass. Whoever localized it as this needs to be shot. It's unwieldy and stupid.
Statians really are retarded in pronunciations, you just have to read the name pronunciations threads and face palm

American: ə or bust.

Funny it was pronounced correctly in The Wizard. And it was clear these guys know nothing about video games. Maybe they had an actual Nintendo consultant on that.

Do you pronounce "forte" the same as "fort"? Because that's 'technically' correct too.
>pronounced it poke key mon
Am I inbred yet?
