 |
|
How do you pronouonce Yosei, Keiga, and Kokusho? Is there a "correct" way to say their names? Someone at FNM kept telling me its "Yo-Sigh" whenever I said "Yo-Say". I've heard it both ways. What are your opinions?
Yosei:
Yo-Say
or
Yo-Sigh
Keiga:
Key-gah
or
Kigh-gah
Kokusho:
Kuh-Koo-Show
or
Ko-Koo-Show (said quickly) |

I say "Yo-Say" even though I think it is pronounced "Yo-Sigh".
"Key-Ga"
"Co-Koo-Show"
But that's just me.

| In Japanese it's Yo-say, Kay-ga, Ko-koo-show. There is no emphasis on syllables in Japanese but if you were to say the Japanese pronounciation in an American way, those would be it. |

| To get the igh sound you are talking about, it would need to be spelled "yosai" and "kaiga", when spelled ei(yosei, keiga) it produces an A sound. |
