as for Eidos, well, ei-doss , with e pronounced "e" and i pronounced "i", not "i" and "aï" like in English :)

In Greek, "ei" sounds like Neolatin letter "i". That's why you, in France, say and write "idée" and not "eidée".

As another one, how would you pronounce my first name, Ryszard?

A kick in the balls for the "rise-hard" crowd, before we even start :LOL:

Like the German "Richard", I guess. Rishard rhyming with shard.


Adobe: A-'doh-bee
ATI: when speaking English: A.T.I., when speaking German: 'Ah-tee
Cache: cash
Eidos: 'Ay-doss
NVidia: en-'viddia

I'd naturally say Ris-zard but I bet on Rissard.

I'd go for "rishard", based on the names of a couple of other little szits I know.

Cheers :oops: Xmas and BuHu are right. Didn't stop my first teacher calling my rye-zard n my first day of school, and that sticking until I left. Damn you Mrs. Thompson, damn you :LOL:
 
You are lucky - Ryszard is a pretty cool name (pronounced wrongly or not). The kid called Dlugosz in our class at school was called dloogotz, dluggose, dwoogoss etc. And he had herpes.
 
how is Mandelbrot pronounced? Benoît almost looks like it should be French ("Bin-wah") but he's a Jew from Poland...
