Mugen is a japanese word means forever/infinite

MU- GE- N
MOO G-EH -N

EDIT:
Dam beaten to it.

Also its ENKEI is pronounced as its spelled in romaji.
EN-KAY-I (I as in saying the letter "E" not as in "EYE")

dam english is annoying.

deaf-eye

therefor defi is romaji
and is Deh-fee

how about TEIN ? LOL

jun - joon

brembo - blembo

Ok guys. Dafuq am I reading LOL

Feels like I'm in an English second language class.


OP

Defi is pronounced 'Dee - Fee'

Tein is 'T - ein' So you make a Tuh then ein

[amee-reb]

LMAO... it feels like were all in some sort of esl class!
i was talking to someone the other day and he said tiens as tns... i thought he was talking about the shoes o.O LOL i would say it as tyans..

[Indie]

Greddy - greddie
Enkei - eng-kay
GruppeM - groop-em
Mugen - myoo-gun

These are all absolutely correct.

Meisters are pronounced in the obvious fashion. Like 'heist'.

Tein, is TAIN like PAIN but with a T

and the brand Defi is Deh-fee (the eh sound should sound like the E in Pedophile) (ee sound is like short "i" noise, like the "i" from "tit")
not Dee-fee, other wise it would be spelt diifi

That's funny, the Japanese don't have a good way to pronounce "f"

Ask them to say "coffee" and they pronounce it "coh-hee"

thats true, the F/H are a mix in some cases.
but that is actually the japanese word for coffee.
コーヒー
koohii

in the word futsuu (meaning usual/normal) it also sound like hutsuu.

but fi is a different character the hi.
the character for fi is a hybrid character which resembles the Fu/Hu character, ふ, plus the i character, い.
so is more like fu-i / hu-i.
so although sound similar they do have seperate characters.

'Myoo' for Mugen can't be right..

Moo-gen? So moo like moo cow and gen like 'again' Would this be right?

[MR_LATE]

this is fckin hilarious!

[GU357]

moo-gen (the moo shouldnt be dragged out should be quick)

your right its not myu (as in Mi-oo) be easier if you had japanese understanding.

[curtis265]

The Mu makes a 'moo' sound like..a cow, doesn't it?

As for the gen..

Enkei..N-kaei..like kei cars

I say mugen as myugen

Yep, definitely what I was trying to say. I just didn't know how to type it out. So kind of like Mouh-gen

I have a bit, a very small bit of understanding of Japanese, but nothing that would help this thread
