Hi, i was just wondering what the correct pronunciation was for Suomy.

 

[ninja vanish]

i dunno, i say it like SUE-AHH-ME

 

[FLOJOE]

While we are at it pronounce Arai and Shoei. I have probably been saying it wrong.

 

[NickLike_Whoa]

Suomy=Sue-O-Me

Arai=A-Rie

Shoei=Show-E

 

[VIo]

Ok, i thought so. The dealer i just got my ZX-10 from was pronouncing it as Swami, i'd never heard that before.

 

[FLOJOE]

So its A-rie with a long A, not uh-rie.

 

[Daryl 636]

Suomy = SWO-ME .

[:M58] Exactly. I hate it when people call my helmet a shoo-ee.

Yeah thats the way I meant to put it, youve got it right

 

[Sanjose636]

I think Arai is uh-rah-ee, seeing as it's Japanese. They ununciate their characters seperately. But I'm not for certain.

 

[Kalvin00]

I see Sue-Me and uh-rye.

Sho'-E

And I don't care if it's not the right way.

I have a Sho'E, but I pronounce all three of them ik-spen-siv [:0]
