Anyways - I always thought it was live as in "I live in a house". I've heard a few people say live, as in live wire.


I would never have thought that it would be the latter. But several people I know pronouce it this way. Yes they sound stupid.. or maybe I do?

We live for the speed, it's not live for the speed broadcast live I think XD

First option, obviously

Thursday, the stupid poll day 1st one of course

Pretty sure this has been covered before, can't figure out why anyone would call it anything other than "live" is in "I live in a house".

Dan,

I was going to make a Toast Vs Cereal for breakfast poll, but thought I would save that one until next week

Yeah we had this on RSC once - hilarious.
It's live as in div, and couldn't possibly be live as in dive in a million years - it just doesn't even begin to make sense.

As a native English speaker (ignoring the changes made to the language) you should know better.

Ahhh.. the famous TC..

I do know better, it's everyone that pronouces it as "live" as in "dive" (where are you?? :shrug that I'm questioning, really.

I can't imagine anyone would think that though. Even the non-English people here have an exceptional grasp on the English language (both written and spoken from my experiences) and just wouldn't make that mistake.

But I'll let you off now you've clarified it I'm nice really

Behold! Boys and girls, as the mighty Tristan is proven...... wrong!

"Live", of course.

"Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms."

I meant most, not all non-English speakers

Lol, who voted for Live as in dive?

Bah, your kidding? Well, it was a link to all of faster111's posts.

<public humiliation of tristan failed>

<public humiliation of greg succeeded>

<needs sleep>

Rofl

Just a thought---will a German native speaker who doesn't know English well tend to pronounce "Laive For Speed"?

Never thought about another pronouciation, but it sounds cool.

Seriously...what on earth is wrong with all you guys..its "live" as in "live wire" obviously...

I always thought it was Live, from... like a news broadcast "We are now live at the... blabla". And as in XBox Live. Because you play it live, online, it's an online simulator.

Well, there are some dorks who don't understand the difference between "live" and "life", so yes, it might happen. But I think the most common error is that they pronounce "live" as "need"

E: yup, "lif" is okay

Another one:

FX-Oh definately.

Then again, my name should be pronounced Bean-Oh

The title of this post fooled me a little, it was in the use of the word "interesting". that tricked me. Some of you guys have too much time on your hands!
