BluePineapple72 Posted December 24, 2022 (edited) Simply just curious. How does doomworld pronounce the abbreviated Pineapple Under the Sea Speedmapping Seires? Edited December 27, 2022 by BluePineapple72 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
Shepardus Posted December 24, 2022 For the sake of this poll, I will start pronouncing it as neither of those, and will instead say it with a long U, like p-you-ss. 8 Quote Share this post Link to post

Doomkid Posted December 27, 2022 People who voted for the top option are THE CREAM OF THE CROP as far as I'm concerned, personally, to be honest, imo. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post

My brain sees two "s"'s (been a while since grammar class, I wonder if I did that right?) and immediately pronounces them the second way. Pus is such a specific sounding word, Puss sounds way more general and common, hence why that's what I hear when I see it. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post
brick Posted December 27, 2022 I had to go look at a phonetic dictionary to find out that I have been mispronouncing pus all my life. The good news is that I've always thought of PUSS as what pus actually turned out to be. (I always thought of it as "fuss" but with a p) 2 Quote Share this post Link to post

Martin Howe Posted December 28, 2022 Puss as in cat. As Dusty_Rhodes says above, grammar rules OK (except when writing that grammar rules ok :P) 2 Quote Share this post Link to post
