How do you pronounce it?

Post by markmeat » Tue Jun 05, 2007 8:06 pm

Without leaning anyone in any particular direction, how do you pronounce Nuendo?

I've heard people pronounce it both ways, and I want to know what is right!!!

Why would people stick an "I" at the front of the word? Did Hooked on Phonics not work for them?

I've never heard anyone call it Inunendo, but I think its funny and I think I'll call it that from now on.

well nuendo isn't even a word, so a lot of people who just glance at it think it's just the company trying to find a cooler way of spelling the closest word, that actually exists. this guy isn't crazy.. i've heard a lot of people pronounce it both ways.

Yeah I think it has to do with people not knowing what to do and saying "N", so it's "en" and then "you-endo"

Hell I've got a friend who says "mee-dee" for MIDI, although he also thinks midi means "sounds in the general midi soundset I hear when I click on .mid files on my computer."

I have been pronouncing Cubase as ku-basi. Is that not correct? Fuck, I quit.

That'd be the worst acronym ever then.




I have a friend who pronounces SCSI "skizzy." I don't hang around him much.

Innuendo, like intendo. Didn't you ever have an intendo? Just like Noimann, Mowg, and New-trick (Noitrick?)... AHHH!!!

These are all ways to tell if someone is in that special club or not.
