So I was talking to another member about buying his Apex'i ws exhaust. Didn't know how to say that brand and said something like "Ahpex-e" anyone know if I was anywhere close?
Anyways post up brand names and their pronunciation and you can correct people if they're wrong
example:
eibach = "i-bahhhk" (hard one to spell)

now, for enkei, is it "en-kee" or "en-kay"
as for the rest of the stuff, i just use japanese pronunciation for most things.. hell, we have japanese cars, so a majority of the stuff is japanese made.. especially stuff like mugen and tein (moo-gen and tain, as mentioned above)..
and apex'i is short for apex integration.. so saying the short form would be "a-pex-ee" i guess.. lol

a japanese guy recently came to my house and bought some enkei wheels I had, and he called them en-kee, so i'm assuming that's how you say it. he was speaking japanese to his wife whenever he wasn't speaking to me.Originally Posted by xRiCeBoYx

If thats true wouldnt it be a-pex-eye ?
I always thought it was "apex eye"

in japanese, the "i" doesn't make an "eye" sound.Originally Posted by speedricerx
If thats true wouldnt it be a-pex-eye ? But I live in America^
So because of my American "accent" isn’t eye correct pronunciation?

Apexi is pronounced Apex-e
and im damn sure mugen is not pronounced moogen, more like mew-gen and the g is pronounced like in "again"
and im damn sure mugen is not pronounced moogen, more like mew-gen and the g is pronounced like in "again"
what about "megan"
....mee-gen.. gen as in again.... thats what i always called it. this is kinda fun. how do u say ebeich...or w.e ...u know the suspension company lol...i say EE-BAH-CK! .....and i dont think neuspeed is NEW-SPEED..more like n-U-speed.
im sure your damn wrong. pronounce it however u want, but it is moogan. just because u have heard it pronounced wrong thousands of times doesnt mean it is correct. it is often pronounced wrong with those in the "know"
yup definatly moogan I used to say it wrong for years. hahaha this is a fun topic
