minus-squareagamemnonymous@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up2·8 hours agoLike pwnd, which is something like pünd or /pʊnd/
minus-squareTuukka R@piefed.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·15 hours agoI sometimes see people saying “pronounce it like it’s the name of a Greek philosopher” or “pronounce it as if it was Spanish”. There’s a “p”, a “w”, an “n”, an “e” and a “d”. Say those in a row. “As if it was Spanish”, to make sure that e is really e and not i.
