That can be said for any word. I thought you meant you yourself had problems speaking the word Vita or something. Even Dreamcast is spoken DreAHMcast in some countries. And Wii is pronounced Veetee in some places. How does that matter? I don't follow..General Shank-a-snatch said:People could interpret it in different ways.
And Vista/Dreamcast is? Most countries will pronounce it the same, Veetah. There will of course be differences but its not like only America/Europe/Japan say Veetah. I am confused..?Zoe said:Vee-tuh
Veye-tuh
Vi-tuh
It's not a normal English word. I'd imagine most people would try to go for Vi-tuh to be like Vista.

Yes, those are certainly meanings of Vista. Vista originated in Italia didn't it? So it is a common Italian word no?Zoe said:vis·ta/ˈvistə/Noun
1. A pleasing view, esp. one seen through a long, narrow opening: "a vista of church spires".
2. A mental view of a succession of remembered or anticipated events: "vistas of freedom"

I don't see how Vita is less common or harder to say than Vital when only one letter is removed. Isn't that English 101? The flow of letters in sentences??General Shank-a-snatch said:That's what we were talking about, dear. Common English words are easy to pronounce, even if you daisy chain them together. Now, if the new PSP was called "Vital," the average English-speaking person would know how to pronounce it correctly.
Vista is a word in the French language as well, it is not a hard word to pronounce or interpret. You are confusing me!!Zoe said:It is a word in the English language, regardless of origin.
Vita, on the other hand, is not.

edit: Ok, English speakers do not say Vita often, therefore it is harder to pronounce???
Ok, tell me if I understand, this has been very interesting!!Zoe said:English is full of exceptions in pronunciation.
FTH said:Ok, tell me if I understand, this has been very interesting!!
Vita is pretty universal when you say it in French and some other places. In English though, since there are varied locales, Vita can either be pronounced Veetah or Vytah or those others you mentioned. Therefore, English speakers have a varied experience with the word and don't know a "true" way to say it?? Right?
Zoe said:English speakers have NO experience with the word, so they would have to look to other words to form the pronunciation.
English is not a romance language, so you can't expect words to transfer so easily between many other European languages like it is for French.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think the "vIta" (or "Eye-raq") pronunciation is derived from any European language.Onion_Relish said:English is however based off several languages, several of which are romantic in origin.
le probleme est ca: quelques mots avec les lettres "a" ou "i" sont prononces avec un "eee" ou un "i". Donc, le mots "data" est prononces "dah-ta" et "day-ta". les deux sont vrai. le meme problems est ca avec "vita".
Sorry for my shoddy french. Basically both pronounciations are correct because either one is not necessarily true. "vIta" and "veeta" are both acceptable due to different european influences being in the language.
arrggg ok. Not sure I understand completely. but ok, Vita is not an English word at all, yet vital and vista are, which is how English speakers know how to derive Vita.Zoe said:English speakers have NO experience with the word, so they would have to look to other words to form the pronunciation.

So it can be pronounced differently, but never hard to pronounce, like data? So it really shouldn't matter of the speaking then. Everyone will still know what to say. Even if someone else knows another way.

I'll just wait to hear how Kaz and Sony pronounce it.
SoulPlaya said:I don't care about the name. Just please don't let it be over $250.
Haha oui! Il est juste un mot, je doute qu'il y aura de la difficulté à dire Vita si elle est annoncée. Réaction excessive typiqueOnion_Relish said:Merci Beacuoup. Et oui, vous etes correcte. Je ne sais pas pourquoi les gens qui parlent dans le forum sont agite. C'est juste un mot.
Et, une vrai histoire pour vous. J'ai obetnu un nouveau emploi avec le gouvernement du canada. Je travaille avec le recensement du canada dans le bureau au Surrey. Je telephone les gens qui avez un problem avec leurs recensement. Le raison primaire pour moi de obtenir le emploi est pour ma francais haha. Je travaille avec seulement deux personnes qui parlent francais. Le homme est bilingual a partir de l'ecole francais (immersion) et le fille a habite Montreal. Je essaie plus fort parceque je peut-etre accepte quand je visite France. Ou habitez vous?

It won't have 64gb on board, I can tell you that.Dedication Through Light said:Makes me wonder how 3G pricing will work, on top of being the model most likely at $350. $349.99 wifi only one for me, if it has 64GB on board memory or more.
Anything over $299 would be a psychological issue. I hope Sony knows this. They probably do but suck too much.KAL2006 said:$250 - it would be a steal
$300 - i would think that is the perfect price and well worth the money
$350 - i would still get it but the price would upset me a bit
$400 - fuck no way this console is doomed
I predict it to be $300
just curious...Plinko said:$350 would take all of the vita out of this system's launch.
gofreak said:Jim Reilly of IGN thinks Vita was the codename for NGP previously too - but wasn't it Veta? Only one site previously reported the codename as Vita, AFAIK, everyone else as Veta.
- I think 350 is too much for a dedicated gaming handheld in today's standards, especially considering the rising prices of retail games. So I don't see it being successful right out of the gate.Bad_Boy said:just curious...
do you think 350 is too much to be successful?
or do you think the PSV doesnt have a value of 350.
or both?
