Title: How do you pronounce Omega?
Post by: Banjax on 28 July 2008, 09:39:09

I would say Oh-mih-gah  but 've heard it said Oh-may-gah
or Oh-mee-gah even Om-egg-ah

Just curious  ;)

I'm with you, but it always seems to cause confusion, as most seem to pronounce it Oh-meeg-a.  :-/

Ummm something like oh-me-gah I think, it is said quickly with no particular holding on to any sounds, if that makes sense.

The omega3 adverts sum it up for me. I pronounce the "O" in omega the same as many might pronounce Amigo... hence Amiga. Could be my southern accent.... ::) 8-)
     Usually it's known as "TheMig" :y

I think I'll go with "The Mig" - saves any confusion   ;)
