What's a Scirra?

also, curious. anyone call it con'struct instead of construct',

as in the noun instead of the verb?   ? I kinda wanted to, but it just didn't roll off the tongue very well.

I didn't realize that construct and construct have different pronunciations. <img src="smileys/smiley5.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

As far as I'm concerned I pronounced 'Scirra' "? la" French.

So silent C, "pinched" I (the pronounciation of the letter "e" in english) and open A as in "bra".

Thats exactly how I pronounce it, but just because i'm brazilian. Also the double R sounds like H as in "house" or "harsh"

Skirra sounds better although it's pronounced scirra with a silent c.It's like Mortal Kombat.Wow imagine Mortal Combat with a silent C lol.Skieraaaahh di uken!!!.

Heh, old thread by the way.

I've noticed over time people pronounce both "Scirra" and "Construct" differently depending on region/accent/etc. I don't think it matters, there's no one "correct" way to say it :)

I always pronounced "Scirra" like it is :D It's totally country/region dependant.

Ashley admitted on the first page that he caved and called it "skeeruh". Case closed. LOL

I would agree that the "sc" (as in "scissors") might be a silent-C, but then, "scirra" isn't a normal word in any language (certainly not English). THUS, it's quite reasonable to think that the C is a K-sound letter. sKirra.

You are all wrong...
