Confusion, thy name is Tsugaru

DanD · Posted: Thu Jun 09, 2005 12:10 pm Post subject: Confusion, thy name is Tsugaru

Hokay, so since a lot of people in my School's Band (myself included, obviously) are addicted to DDR, especially Extreme, a lot of people play Tsugaru.
However, their pronunciation seems to bother me the most.
So I ask you--What is the correct / your way of pronouncing it?

Tsoo-guh-roo (my way)
Or
Tsoo-GAH-roo

Or do you have a somehow rediculously different personal pronunciation? Love to hear it.

It's the second one, except that in the "ru" you really don't pronounce an "R" sound in japanese, it's more of a mix between an "L" and and "R", but you don't have to worry about that.

There's already a thread about this and other DDR songs. There was a huge spiel about the song name "Sakura". Try using the "Search" option next time

You're welcome

I hate that thread so much, because I didn't have the right to make it because I didn't now how to pronounce any of them. PLEASE! IF ANYONE NOWS HOW TO SAY A LOT OF CONFUSING SONG NAMES, PLEASE MAKE A THREAD ABOUT IT!! The only reason I'm saying this is because it would save a lot of tsugaru threads.

I think you were writing that while I posted because our posts were like 1 minute off, just to let you no. And it is said tsoo-GAH-roo Notice the very faint but noticeable t in the begining.

Ehh... Sorry for making the completely unnecessary thread. I had a terrible headache before I wrote this and thus, forgot to look for similar threads.
Dearest apologies.

Guys, making a shitload of posts in a thread isn't going to get it locked. PMing a moderator will. Stop post-whoring before you get points for it.
