@corianderOkay here's a question:
how do you pronounce Marcille? I can think of two or three different ways that all seem equally plausible
™ supreme goblin @corianderJudging by the comments, I'm alone in thinking it's three syllables and uses the double-L as a /j/
™ supreme goblin @corianderActually thinking about it more I"m not sure it has a /j/ in it at all the way I'm saying it, but also I never learned fuck about shit about French phonology
™ supreme goblin @corianderSomething like [mɑ̃.si.j͜ɛ]
™ supreme goblin @corianderIn Japanese it's Marushiru so now I have no fucking idea
@coriander ty i love when cute women
@trashguts@goblin.camp@coriander like marcy + lucille is how my brain says it
™ supreme goblin @coriander@trashguts That's what I thought at first but the more I look at it the more Frenchish it seems, which would extremely change how the double-L is pronounced
@trashguts@goblin.camp@coriander oh yeah i have no idea how french pronunciation works
@coriander without thinking too much, I would guess marr-SILL or marr-SEAL
bed @niss@chitter.xyz@coriander in that case it is probably meant to rhyme with the english pronunciation of lucille?
™ supreme goblin @coriander@niss Yeah I think so
@coriander I can totally see three syllables, either as /j/ or as ending with lee
@coriander i'd intuitively go two syllables like in Marseille
bed @niss@chitter.xyz@coriander i haven't Interacted with this Media™ but marSEE based on half-remembered french
™ supreme goblin @coriander@niss Okay you see it as potentially French too, nobody else has said anything about that and I was worried I was the only one =P
bed @niss@chitter.xyz@coriander it looks extremely french to me and looking it up i am surprised that it is not a common real life name
™ supreme goblin @coriander@niss Her last name is Donato, which is NOT a French name at all, but tbh I think we can chalk that up to Manga Writing =P
™ supreme goblin @coriander@niss I guess that might make it an Italian realizaiton of the name rather than French?
But I think it would sound kinda similar between the two
™ supreme goblin @coriander@holly I went down a long rabbit hole and had to remember a ton of IPA characters before I thought to just look at how it's pronounced in Japanese and infer an English pronunciation from there
