Aspies For Freedom

Oh-camp-oh.

Not saying where I got it from because I'll blush

Ich...

Nope, not after the expression!

Will take its original source to the grave with me lol

pronounced somewhere between "Owen" and the "oan" sound in "moan". I can barely pronounce it myself...

most people do, the E is quite misleading. It's a Celtic pronounciation, and that has some very complicated rules.

It's fun when people talk to me and twist their tongue around the pronounciation (met none from AFF in real life, (difficult location) but i use it in on MSN too). I don't mind of course.

count me in with the "La-shy-er" people, though not anymore

I've found languages quite fascinating myself. A few years ago I had this phase where I would spend hours collecting information on all the languages in the world. I'd like to learn another language myself (i only know 3 well, and those just because of childhood), but I'm always torn between numerous choices and end up choosing none...

Good luck with your own language. I think Luai Lashire should make it in, I like the way it sounds (especially now that I know how it actually does)

I pronounce mine Sham-sheer.

I guess mine is fairly obvious, but it does irk me slightly when people pronounce "taoist" as "TAY-oh-ist" when it should be said as "DOW-ist".  But to be fair, I guess it can be tricky if you're not familiar with Taoism.

pee-kah-jed-i

damn, thats a mouthful....think i'll call you lloyd :p

Very funny.

I sometimes tell people my name in Gaelic - Latharna - to have a giggle over how they struggle to pronounce it

Which is incidentally Lah-har-na.

Sort of like F--K or Suck.

Just with a P.

Puck is a character in "A Midsummer's Night's Dream" my favorite play ever...

*Looks at name*

orz...I forgot to mention the "Orz" at the end...fairly straight forward.

Mine's pretty straightforward:

"***-power-aysh-uns"
