man-guh is how I say it. XD Although sometimes I say it exactly how it sounds.. you know, man-gah

For Manwha, I say mahn-wha XD I dunno why.

Does the walker choose the path, or the path the walker?

after learning the right way to pronounce it, i realized that i was already pronouncing it right way by mistake. 🤣

i pronounce it the whitenized way. someone criticized me for it once and i almost changed but i like the way i say it 😛 and nothings going to change it (other than death threats or being sent fish in the mail with obscure notes)

I'm sorry, but I laughed out loud at the options. How do YOU pronounce manga? Well, how is it correctly pronounced?

It is actually pronounced "the westernised way": Ma-n-ga or manga.

It is not "the Japanese way" monga; nor is anime animay. Same as Sasuke (Sah-soo-keh) not being pronounced Saucekay, nor Naruto (Nah-roo-toe) NARootoe.

Note the A's are pronounced like "Ah" in Japanese. Always.

This is coming from someone who while not even as fluent as a 4 year old native Japanese, someone who knows Japanese. Japanese is a straightforward language, and the most complicated linguistic area it has is stresses (Admittedly, to my knowledge).

Pronouncing the A as an "aw" or "uh" sound = common incorrect perception. A common misconception if you will. Also, it is accurately pronounced either as Ma-n-ga (3 syllables) or Man-ga (2 syllables)

i thought i was butchering it completely until i found out i was pronouncing it right 🤣

Man-gah! So wrong apparently, but it comes out like ma-un-gah because of my Sprench accent...>_>

I've always heard white people call it 'main-guh', not manga. I personally say "mawn-gaw" (awww sound like the japanese "a"), but I hardly use that word since "comics" or "komikkusu" is used way more often...and if I'm speaking Japanese that comes out as "koh-mi-kks".

...Then again it seems to be one of those Japanese words with an English equivalent where the Japanese form is used in the US way more than it is in Japan... Like BL aka boy's love is used in Japan instead of shounen-ai or yaoi, which is used in the US. Go figure.

LONG LIVE COMICS.

I think..just like it's written..man-ga..I think..

まんが 😉

I said it the wrong way, which is the way the person who got me into manga said it, until I googled it or something and found the right way.

I say it the right way--"mah-ng-gah."
Sometimes, I will also say "mahn-guh," but that's a slip of the tongue.
I never ever say "man-guh" (rhymes with "plan duh"). It sounds pretty dumb when people say it that way, doesn't it?

I say it the Japanese way, but sometimes I change depending who I'm talking to.

Mah-nh-gah. That is how I do it.

I used to say mah-nga the american way before i got really into it. Now i find myself always saying Muhn-ga the japanese even if i want to say it the american way 🙁 (
