Hmm, just wondering, Patchou, Fraisie and all you other french people, how do you pronounce "Messenger Plus!"? RE: Pronounciation by Anubis on 02-08-2004 at 05:51 PM I'd guess Plus is so universal it'd be Messager Plus!...where the only change is Messenger = Messager....I'm just making a guess though…it could be Messager Avec! RE: Pronounciation by KeyStorm on 02-08-2004 at 06:07 PM hm... Méssanger Plys!? RE: Pronounciation by fluffy_lobster on 02-08-2004 at 06:09 PM I'm sure they don't change the words, I'm just wondering how they pronounce the u.

Like the french plus word (yes! plus exists in french ): it's actually the "y"-sound, but I'm afraid there's no such sound in English... RE: Pronounciation by fluffy_lobster on 02-08-2004 at 11:14 PM Well Patchou's online... let's see RE: Pronounciation by Apatik on 02-09-2004 at 12:22 AM we pronounce 'messenger' like in english, but with the french accent xD and plus just like '+' in french, keystorm made a good description of it ^_^ RE: Pronounciation by zappy004 on 02-09-2004 at 01:32 AM

I learned french some years ago, not very much but enough for me (Barcelona is 100mi - 160km from France border) RE: Pronounciation by lizard.boy on 02-09-2004 at 02:35 AM everybody i know says it as messenger as normal and plus as in 1+1 RE: Pronounciation by Fraisie on 02-10-2004 at 04:38 PM When Patchou and I talk about Plus (which is like... always!!!), we say Plus, not as Ploss but Plüs... The "u" sound in french doesnt really exist in english |
