How Do You Guys Pronounce...

[Croweyes1121]

Every time I see MMJ perform on a late night show or something, the host always introduces them as "My MORNING Jacket", with emphasis on Morning.  I've always just said all three words with equal emphasis.  Who do you guys say it?

Also, how do you guys say "Okonokos"?  I typically say "okOnokos", all with long O sounds, emphasis on the second O.  I could see saying it "okonOkos", though, with the emphasis on the third syllable.  I know maybe these sound like dumb questions, but I just realized that honestly, I don't know.  lol

I say "My Morning Jacket" like this:

u /u /u

And "Okonokos" like this:
u/u/

(For those who are not phonetics dorks-- u=unstressed, /=stressed)

[Croweyes1121]

I think mine is probably

My Morning Jacket
/ /u /u

Okonokos
u/u/

I always pronounce it as My Morning JACKet, the same as I pronounce My Chemical ROmance.

I hope the only time you are pronouncing "My Chemical Romance" it is followed by "makes me want to stick ice picks in my ears".

MMJ

[easy way]

Everytime I glance at the board topics, this thread catches my eye... then I have to pronounce whatever topic is directly underneath this one.
How do you guys pronounce...War Begun. That was the last one. Will this ever end or will I earn a black belt in pronunciation?

You all probably say the album "Z" wrong too.  Hmmmmm.

How do you all pronounce Acoustic citsuoca?   :-?

[tomEisenbraun]

huh, i've always gone with uu/u for Okonokos...

As for Acousticitsuoca, I try and go for Acoustic it-soo-oak-uh. Sometimes it turns into sit-soo-oak-uh, but I don't like that so much, because there aren't enough letters there for that to happen phonetically.

Nice explanation. That's always troubled me also.
