PWNAGE?

I just thinking how do you pronounce pwnage?

do you pronounce it the "make love not warcraft" PONE-AGE way?

do you pronounce it the phoenetic PAWN-AGE way?

do you pronounce it the wierd PRAWN-AGE way?

or do you discount the P (since the term was a spelling mistake originally anyway) and just pronounce it OWN-AGE?

Discuss...:D

the 'make love not warcraft' way...just seems the most fitting to me.

Considering the origin of the word, it should be "pone", but I'm stubborn and say "pawn" anyway.

Pawn-age. Like one of Earth's reformation periods that no one cared much about

Age of the Prawns.

Who says that's phonetic? :p

What if I wanted to pronounce it pwinage?

Poonage :cool:

I don't say it or type it as it looks very juvenile. I'll go with the more distinguished "owned."

"Powned" o_o?

Even my mom says it! ^_-

PAWN-NAGE!!!! :bigsmile:

I instintively say PAWN-AGE but "make love not warcraft" changed my view on the matter with their PONE-AGE pronounciation so now i just say both depending on my mood!

PAWN-AGE. :bigsmile:

Pone-age, duh.

i agree with manus! poonage all the way!

Pawned. Like the chess piece.
It's symbolic of the PWNED ones weakness and also his demotion in rank.

If I say some variation of the word, it's usually just PONED. I'd probably pronounce it Pone-edge/Pone-age, though.

Ownage. Anything else is blasphemy.

Pawn-age.

I've never pronounced it outside my head before, but I'd pronounce it pwned. it'd probably be like puhwned, but the uh would be so short that you'd hardly notice it.

I pronounce it the pone-age way.:)

I don't really pronounce it, since I dislike the word, but it's clearly "poneage". I can understand why somebody might prefer "pawnage", but why would anyone pronounce it as "prawnage"? :{

poon age

poneage is phoenetic, since I think most amerienglish speakers pronounce their consonants with a u sound by default.

"puh own"

According to Pure Pwnage, you are all wrong and it's pronounced "ownage."

I agree.

I pronounce this word as the following

typoed!!1

well i would say its phonetic to say pawnage, because human as we are, we tend to insert letters in places when a word doesnt look easily pronouncable...

I never say it, to tell the truth, I think it's the most retarded word. But I think it's pronounced Pawnage.

If I have to read it, I will think "pone." But I try to avoid having my eyes look at it at all costs. I hate that word. Owned is just as bad, in my books.

I don't say it.

I prefer "FACED." :greenie:

Whats so bad about owned? and why have some of you people got something against pwned?

"Pwone-d" or "Pone-d" depending on how I'm feelin'. Usually the first though.

:(

pawned...like what where i sold ma tooth....

Pwoon-age xD Like swoon.

I really never had any idea how to correctly pronounce "pwned" so I usually just say "owned" instead. I think if I were to use the term, from the ways that were listed, I would say "pawned."

i've actually never used the word or said it aloud before, but reading this thread i've said it aloud soo many times! but i think "pone-age" goes best.

Pawned is so much more original than owned.

PAWNAGE!

Pawnage just sounds so much better than pone-age dontcha think?

Bumping your own thread that has already died peacefully is a no-no. :cat:
