Title: Pjotr
Post by: firestar12 on February 23, 2009, 02:04:21
I was wondering, how do you say Pjotr, the Ship Simulator producer''s name? Is it like P-yo-ter?

"Peter" is probably as close as you can get without injuring yourself.
Seriously, substitute Y for the J, and use the "oh" sound for the O.

Ask Agent|Austin how to pronounce Puyallup—similar principle.

The family name of Harry Potter comes close.
So if you are able to pronounce Potter you are almost there.
The final touch should be Pjotter, wich is close to Pee-Otter, so if you pronounce that fast like Peeotter, I think if you call that in the office of shipsim, you have a chance that Pjotr will look up.

Hi A|A,
A gooey duck is a mussel, or mollusk. We eat them in Oregon too.

You live in Oregon? Didn't know that. But yes it is in the clam family. It just has a long tail (body)

EDIT: Marty, thanks for the mp3 file (I'm Pjotr (Funny the spell checker calls it a mistake) I was right about the pronunciation.
