How do you pronounce "EcoModder"?
 

Just curious...

Does it match up with the way you say "economic" or "ecological" or "ecosystem"?

Heh... never even considered "echomodder" ... not sure why...

I think ECHOwhatever may be more of a British pronunciation.

One jokester told me he pronounces it "e-COMMODEr". As in...

I figured it was Economy + Modifier = Ecomodder. "economic" would probably make more sense, but it sounds wrong to me. So, EEco-modder it is.

Streaming content? :D

I thought you meant commodore, before your visual. I guess some might say there's not much difference!

Also, in answer of your question I do say EEcomodder, just like I say EEconomic, EEcological, etc.

I streamed some good, quality television shows last night... :rolleyes:

I always pronounced "Eco-modder" with a sharp "E" at the start.

Database dump. :rolleyes:

I've always gone with the first one (EEcomodder). I guess that's because it's similar to how I've always heard "eco" pronounced in other vehicle context. For exaple, Ford's EcoBoost, the Chevy Cruze Eco, etc. Then again, maybe other people don't pronounce those "EEco..."

A while back I saw this article, which I thought was pretty interesting. It's maps of the US showing linguistic differences by regions. Things like pronunciation of "caramal", "aunt", "crayon", "garage", "pecan" etc. as well as other expressions such as "garbage can" vs "trash can", "mow the yard" vs "cut the grass", "frosting" vs "icing", etc.
