How Do You Pronounce Mibba?

Lyn Literature:

And you're right by the way, the double consonant, makes the the vowel short. Thusly- Mih-buh.

In Croatian i=ee :file: Forget English phonetic rules.

xXGreyWingsXx:

It's mi-buh but with a silent 'Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious' on the end. XD

I think this is the most correct response in this entire thread. :lmfao

Anyways, if you're really confused, you can always just pronounce Mibba "database error" and that will cover it. :shifty

Yeah you can't really apply one language's phoentic rules to every language :think:

Say it how you want it to be said! :cute:
You know, freedom of speech and all that shizzum :wierd:

I say mib-ah... I'd never have thought to call it me-bah...

My friends and I always pronounce it Mib-uh. We had this argument and decided that we would just say Mib-uh.
:lmfao

I have now started pronouncing it "mee-buh".

It sounds so much cuter! Like a little fuzzy creature you really want to pet.

Meebah... It sounds the way ET would pronounce it. Or Sticth. Or some other adorable space alien... [/weirdness]

The true pronunciation is and always will be "boysecks" ~~

The Update Pigeon!:

I say Mih-buh because... I just always have. And mee-buh sounds like amboea (sp?) as in single celled organism! :D

Lol, amoeba

^ Please make sure your post has something to do with the topic. :shifty

I think we should all pronouce it like My-buh.
That's how I used I said it for like a week until I realised it made no sense and changed to mee-buh. :file:

Everyone I've literally talked to pronounces it "Mih-buh" and that's how I've always said it. I don't really care if it's wrong or right. -shrug-

I just say 'MEEEEEEEEEEBS.' Because I'm awesome and can not pronounce things xD

My friend says Mee-Buh
:tehe:
First time she mentioned out loud to me I was like "You say it like that too?"
I just thought of this thread :XD
It sounds nicer if you say it out loud that way, but I can't stop pronouncing it Mih-Buh when I'm speaking. :tehe:

Most of the time I call it Mibbz.
As in...Mib-z :lmfao

^Chrissie, it's obviously Meebz. :hand:

:D Well it might sound stupid but to me neither "Mee-bah" nor "Mii-bah" sound dfferently. Maybe cuz in German there is just one way of saying it? :XD I just pronounce the first part "Mi" really quickly.

I call it Mih-buh.. just the way it looks.
Yeah, I'm that simple. :XD

I say Mih-buh, its much easier (to me)

I say Meebah. :tehe:

i usually say mee-bah

unless someone says mi-buh first...
then if i say mee-bah, i look like i'm stupid for
not saying it like the other person...

but i like mee-buh better :)

I never even considered pronouncing it a different way until I saw this thread.

I've always said "Mee-buh".....

okay, i'm gunna try not to sould like a total geek here. grammatically, it should be mi-buh, simply because there are two b's. if it were spelled miba, it would be mee-buh. i think mee-buh sounds better though, lol, so that's how i pronounce it :)
