phonetics taught you wrong, Favre

I'm old school hating Lesnar, I've been hating Lesnar since '08

You know, it's time we put a stop to shit like "Favre"

I mean, if somebody’s last name is “Smith” and they say it’s pronounced, “Jackowski,” are we all going to go along with it?

The man’s name is “Fav-rah.”

Don't believe a word I say, I don't train BJJ.

Understand that when people pronounce Favre as "Far –Ve," it is a linguistic phenomenon called "metathesis." Metathesis occurs when two neighboring sounds in a word switch places.

Before I continue, I must let you know I got absolutely nothing to do right now. Let’s resume.

Metathesis is a controversial linguistic phenomenon. Some linguists believe metathesis is primarily the result of speech errors and children’ talk, and is not a regular process. Other linguists believe metathesis can be a regularly occurring process of phonology that affects only a small number of words or forms in a particular language.

If the phenomenon of metathesis is removed from the phonological equation, the name Favre should be pronounced "Fav-Re.

Who should I blame for this? Cage-ons? Teachers? Parents?

i’d blame favre, if he would have just told people his name was pronounced the same damn way it was spelled, he wouldn’t have ruined phonetics for us all.

I’m done with them! They’re back! I’m done with them! They’re back! Going forward we’ll only be doing fighter vlogs! They’re back!

They are moving to the TUF model where the fights are the best part and the rest is just filler.

They can be interesting when he talks to fighters before fights and after, or to see rampage and rashad go at it in front of royce gracie.

Ya i like the candid moments with fighters and legit behind the scenes stuff. I don’t want to hear about how fat Dana and his friends are.

I think ZUFFA could spring for an HD camera too.

Ya this was nauseating, what was the point of that? He’s a promoter he should be promoting his fucking show on the weekend not flexing his cult of personality.

Worst one was where he’s doing one for the WEC and the only footage of the actual event is a shot of the big screen when Jens walks out. The rest is him looking at modeling picture of some bozo friend of his. He didn’t even mention there was a replay of the show on that night, or that it was an amazing fucking show to begin with.

^ALL THIS NEGATIVITY^

 and yet you continue to watch and report back with detailed descriptions. hmmm….

by bdw on Oct 20, 2009 8:35 PM EDT up reply actions  

Because of the things I listed above. I don’t watch for Dana White.
