worse than ya teacher on the 1st day of school... Posted on 05-15-2005

P o e t i q R e i g n
Greensboro, NC
Whose name up here did u think was pronounced one way...& pronounced it like that 4 a good MIN...until someone told u otherwise....?? D.Ham hit me up on the telly yesterday...we were talking...& i found out Tiarea's name isn't pronounced how it looks - "tee-ah-ree-uh"...but instead, like "Tiara" ("tee-air-uh") 4 the LONGEST, i was pronouncin' "Demmeri"..."DEM-urr-ee"....i STILL pronounce it like that....but rod says "dem-AIR-ee"....i like that way better, but it still looks like "dem-urr-ee" 2 me....so maybe Demmeri/Nick can clear that up 'cuz i still have no idea which way is the right way... Jamila...was, up until maybe a year ago...thinking her name was "juh-mill-uh"........then again, D.Ham corrected me, lol...& found out it's "juh-mee-luh".... this doesn't have to do with pronunciation necessarily, but in the verrrryyy beginning...like 2 summers ago...i kept callin' rod "rodney"...instead of "roderick"....& he kept having 2 correct me, lol....& even after he did, he STILL looked more like a "rodney" 2 me than what he is....lol, but now he looks like his name..... 4 a while, i kept confusing Carrie (Poody) & Chantel (TipToes) :-(......'cause they're both female athletes....both have names that start with a "C".....& both i SWEAR be havin' like a MILLION aim s/ns......i gotta keep remembering which one is "no1bangbang"...& which one is "hurdlequeen"..... ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....tryna remember who else's name i've messed up....'cause i KNOW it's been a few otherz.....but anywayz, i'll be back whenever i think of some more....

Damn, for real...I've thought it was TIA-REE-AH too.
****...I did too...and I always was thinkin like dang her name is ****, why would her parents let her name rhyme with diarhea :???: . But when I found out it was prounounced TIARA and not the way it looks I was like, oh aight...cool...
i didn't think it was pronounced as if it sounded like "diarrhea"...as a matter of fact, i never even thought about that, lol the way i was thinking wasn't "TEE-ah-ree-uh"......but instead, "tee-AH-ree-uh"...i thought it was a cute name, actually...but anywayz....

Juh-mill-uh
:x :x :x JUH-ME-LA....its not that hard. If my name was pronounced JUH-MILL-UH...I would have an H at the end of my name....I know a JU-Mill-Uh, and she spelled her name Jamilah...while mine is Jamila.
All this time and I have been pronouncing it wrong.....
