A Nice O'Tropic

[PenguinJim]

Well my vote is for A-Niss-o-Tropic, but please tell me how YOU pronounce this Big Word of Fun :)

Is Anisotropic A Nice O'Tropic or A-Niss-o-Tropic???

[saturnotaku]

I pronounce it anis-tropic - no 'o' in there. It's probably wrong, but I think it sounds better. :D

[intercede007]

An`i*so*trop"ic (http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=anisotropic)

[stncttr908]

I just call it aniso because I'm lazy.

Also, do you guys say "anti-al-eye-asing" or anti-al-eee-asing" and which is really correct?

In spanish it's everything so easy....

Anisotropic is just as it reads...
Ani-s-o'tropic. :D

Antialiasing is anti-alias-ing. :cool:

It's similar to the Linux problem. Linux is pronounced as.... Linux!! No lie-nux. It's lee-noox.

Also, another tricky word: Radeon. :D
Rade-on or Rae-dee-on? ;)

ALobpreis is absolutely correct. Linux is Lee-noox, after its creator Linus (Lee-noose) Torvalds.

I was just curious about the Anisotropic thing after I was reading about all the different filtering methods on a website, and it told me to pronounce it A Nice O'Tropic :rolleyes:

Oh, and EVERYONE calls .ini files 'inny files' right? :D

[SnakeEyes]

Nope. I hear DOT-ini said a bit though. :p

[stncttr908]

I call them I-N-I files. :cool:

I say tomatoe, you say tomarto
I say potatoe, you say potartoe
I say anisotropic, you say anistropic.

I belive it's like this:

A-eminem-nis-o-d12-tropical-50cent. :lol:

a·li·as·ing
an·i·so·trop·ic

I have a friend who insists on prouncing aniso, anseeo. I wonder if a broken jaw would help :angel2:

[PenguinJim]

So no-one here talks about their win dot inny or system dot inny?

:(

[silence]

Yeah! That's the way things have to be. :D

Here, ini is like.... ini! ee-ny. Win.ini, just as it's written (in spanish, win punto ini).
