What is it Chocobo, or Chocobo (Cocabo)
It's chocobo, as in, choke. They say the actual word in the games. Not sure what it is in Japanese.
It's spelled Chocobo, and I think it was pronounced like "choke-oh-bow" in FFX.
Yeah. Kiyuri from FFX says "Choke-a-bow" That's what I always went with.
I always pronounce it with the "CH" sound.
It's not Kiyuri, just someone with the same character model. Kiyuri's on the S.S. Winno. The woman in the Power Room with the chocobos is on the S.S. Liki.Quote:

Chocobo.
Chokobo.
So Chocobo. :) :cat:
Cho-co-bo. Chocobo. I don't see what's difficult about it.
I've always pronounced it choke-uh-bow. I remember reading for the first time somewhere on Gamespot's wonderful boards a big rant about how it's pronounced similar to chocolate like "chawk-uh-bow" and the characters in X were saying it wrong :lol: It was kinda weird because I've never even thought of pronouncing it another way.
Anyway, we've heard the word voice-acted now, not much to debate about I dun think.
Who's Kiyuri?Quote:

They've canonically established this and it's only ever been pronounced this way.
You can hear the correct pronunciation FFVI and FFX.
It's not chalk-a-bo. Consider it your civic duty to dope-slap anyone who pronounces it like that.
I used to think it was pronounced coboo when I was younger lol.
ive always said it choc-o-bo not choke-a-bow. but im quite sure the choke-a-bow one is the correct way to pronounce it.
Cho(r)-coe-bow is the way I pronounce it
Okay, again, there have been TWO games where the word Chocobo has been pronounced out loud. The first was Final Fantasy VI. You can hear it at the very beginning to the song Techno De Chocobo where the phonetics are very distinct for being muffled by a vocoder and the SNES's lousy sampling rate. It was said again in Final Fantasy X and the pronunciation was crystal clear. It is pronounced with short Os. Choh-koh-boh.Quote:

Nope, you're wrong. Go back and listen to it again.
I pronounce it choke-oh-bow. I used to pronounce it choc-oh-bo.
