Um, to add to the Moi dix Mois thing, the translation of it is supposed to be long and complex about numbers, and the gestation period of a baby, Mana...

[Mostly about 10 being 1 and 0, and their meanings, the baby thing, and Mana himself to say that it isn't a band, but a solo project. Yeah... xp ]

I've no wonderful translations or pronounciation guides like you all, but a question, cuz I'm awesome like that. >_>

How does MUCC pronounce their name? Just saying the letters or some odd prnounciation? If anyone could tell me I'd be quite happy! (I hate mis-pronouncing things!!!)

I'm not sure, but I say it like "muck". -shrug.-

Here's one I'm curious about myself --- 12012. I say "twelve-oh-twelve", but I've no clue if that's correct.

About 12012, most of the places I see it listed as pronounced "Ichi ni zero ichi ni". =O

I was reading the list over and I saw that people pronounced Mana like..."Man-uh" sometimes, and I laughed because I NEVER heard anyone pronounce it like that.

Then when I went to the convention, cosplaying as Mana, I joked to my friends about how people apperently say "Man-uh". We turned the corner and heard someone yell out "OMG ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO BE MAN-UH!?"

It was so funny xD

BTW: I couldn't help but notice some errors...

Baiser - Bai (Like pronouncing Bay without the Y) ser (Like pronouncing Sit without the T)

Moi Dix Mois - Mwah Dee mwah. Not DIE. oo; (Dee like...... DeeDee and Dexter. DEE DEE!! Dee!)

^^I've heard some people say it like that [except they know japanese so they don't say "zero"]. I just pronounce it by their other name. Anyway, I've been wondering about the band Tora and Shou used to be in. Is it Gibuus? Gibuss? I don't get it. T___T

i thought the actual pronounciation of Moi Dix Mois was supposed to be Moy-Diz-Mwah.... :/
